8c95290868 qemu: Cleanup boot parameter building
This patch cleans up building the "-boot" parameter and while on that
fixes one inconsistency by modifying these things:

 - I completed the unfinished virDomainBootMenu enum by specifying
   LAST, declaring it and also declaring the TypeFromString and
   TypeToString parameters.
 - Previously mentioned TypeFromString and TypeToString are used when
   parsing the XML.
 - Last, but not least, visible change is that the "-boot" parameter
   is built and parsed properly:
    - The "order=" prefix is used only when additional parameters are
      used (menu, etc.).
    - It's rewritten in a way that other parameters can be added
      easily in the future (used in following patch).
    - The "order=" parameter is properly parsed regardless to where it
      is placed in the string (e.g. "menu=on,order=nc").
    - The "menu=" parameter (and others in the future) are created
      when they should be (i.e. even when bootindex is supported and
      used, but not when bootloader is selected).

c3068d4d23 qemu: Translate boot config into bootindex if possible
Prefer bootindex=N option for -device over the old way -boot ORDER
possibly accompanied with boot=on option for -drive. This gives us full
control over which device will actually be used for booting guest OS.
Moreover, if qemu doesn't support boot=on, this is the only way to boot
of certain disks in some configurations (such as virtio disks when used
together IDE disks) without transforming domain XML to use per device
boot elements.
