4f24ca01e8 qemu: Allow setting boot menu on/off
Add a new element to the <os> block:

  <bootmenu enable="yes|no"/>

Which maps to -boot,menu=on|off on the QEMU command line.

I decided to use an explicit 'enable' attribute rather than just make the
bootmenu element boolean. This allows us to treat lack of a bootmenu element
as 'use hypervisor default'.

af53714f47 cpu: Add support for CPU vendor
By specifying <vendor> element in CPU requirements a guest can be
restricted to run only on CPUs by a given vendor. Host CPU vendor is
also specified in capabilities XML.

The vendor is checked when migrating a guest but it's not forced, i.e.,
guests configured without <vendor> element can be freely migrated.

available as standard device.

The description mismatched the actual structure since the video element

f340964dc9 Attach encryption information to virDomainDiskDef.
The XML allows <encryption format='unencrypted'/>, this implementation
canonicalizes the internal representation so that "disk->encryption" is
non-NULL iff encryption information is available.

A domain with partial encryption information can be defined,
completeness of the information is not verified.  The domain won't
start until the remaining information is added, of course.

  new encryption options for disks
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Pull in storage encryption schema
  rules
