df89071faa xen: recognize device_model_override
Since Xen 4.2 libxl expects device_model_override="/path" instead of
device_model="/path". Adjust the code to parse this as <emulator>.

While libxl also recognizes device_model_version="", this knob is not
required for libvirt. A runtime detection exists in libvirt to select
either "qemu-xen" or "qemu-xen-traditional".
Since qemu-xen-traditional is marked as supported just for stubdoms
there is no need to handle it.

Test data files with 'device_model' were adjusted to use
'device_model_override' instead.

53d98ccea7 xenconfig: support bios=ovmf xl.cfg
Add support to xenconfig for conversion of xl.cfg(5) bios config
to/from libvirt domXml <loader> config. SeaBIOS is the default
for HVM guests using upstream QEMU. ROMBIOS is the default when
using the old qemu-dm. This patch allows specifying OVMF as an
alternate firmware.

Example xl.cfg:
  bios = "ovmf"

Example domXML:
  <os>
    ...
    <loader readonly='yes' type='pflash'>/usr/lib/xen/boot/ovmf.bin</loader>
  </os>

Note that currently Xen does not support a separate nvram for
non-volatile variables.
