If a management application wants to use firmware auto selection
feature it can't currently know if the libvirtd it's talking to
support is or not. Moreover, it doesn't know which values that
are accepted for the @firmware attribute of <os/> when parsing
will allow successful start of the domain later, i.e. if the mgmt
application wants to use 'bios' whether there exists a FW
descriptor in the system that describes bios.
This commit then adds 'firmware' enum to <os/> element in
<domainCapabilities/> XML like this:
<enum name='firmware'>
<value>bios</value>
<value>efi</value>
</enum>
We can see both 'bios' and 'efi' listed which means that there
are descriptors for both found in the system (matched with the
machine type and architecture reported in the domain capabilities
earlier and not shown here).

We only formatted the <sev> element when QEMU supported the feature when
in fact we should always format the element to make clear that libvirt
knows about the feature and the fact whether it is or isn't supported
depends on QEMU version, in other words if QEMU doesn't support the
feature we're going to format the following into the domain capabilities
XML:
<sev supported='no'/>
This patch also adjusts the RNG schema accordingly in order to reflect
the proposed change.

Add a path for UEFI VMs for AArch32 VMs, based on the path Debian is using.
libvirt is the de facto canonical location for defining where distros
should place these firmware images, so let's define this path here to try
and minimize distro fragmentation.
"host" CPU model is supported by a special host-passthrough CPU mode and
users is not allowed to specify this model directly with custom mode.
Thus we should not advertise "host" CPU model in domain capabilities.
This worked well on architectures for which libvirt provides a list of
supported CPU models in cpu_map.xml (since "host" is not in the list).
But we need to explicitly filter "host" model out for all other
architectures.

CPU models (and especially some additional details which we will start
probing for later) differ depending on the accelerator. Thus we need to
call query-cpu-definitions in both KVM and TCG mode to get all data we
want.
Tests in tests/domaincapstest.c are temporarily switched to TCG to avoid
having to squash even more stuff into this single patch. They will all
be switched back later in separate commits.

This patch simplifies QEMU capabilities for QXL video device. QEMU
exposes this device as *qxl-vga* and *qxl* and they are both the same
device with the same set of parameters, the only difference is that
*qxl-vga* includes VGA compatibility.
Based on QEMU code they are tied together so it's safe to check only for
presence of only one of them.
This patch also removes an invalid test case "video-qxl-sec-nodevice"
where there is only *qxl-vga* device and *qxl* device is not present.

The domain capabilities XML is capable of showing whether each guest CPU
mode is supported or not with a possibility to provide additional
details. This patch enhances host-model capability to advertise the
exact CPU model which will be used as a host-model:
<cpu>
...
<mode name='host-model' supported='yes'>
<model fallback='allow'>Broadwell</model>
<vendor>Intel</vendor>
<feature policy='disable' name='aes'/>
<feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
</mode>
...
</cpu>

In case a hypervisor is able to tell us a list of supported CPU models
and whether each CPU models can be used on the current host, we can
propagate this to domain capabilities. This is a better alternative
to calling virConnectCompareCPU for each supported CPU model.

The patch adds <cpu> element to domain capabilities XML:
<cpu>
<mode name='host-passthrough' supported='yes'/>
<mode name='host-model' supported='yes'/>
<mode name='custom' supported='yes'>
<model>Broadwell</model>
<model>Broadwell-noTSX</model>
...
</mode>
</cpu>
Applications can use it to inspect what CPU configuration modes are
supported for a specific combination of domain type, emulator binary,
guest architecture and machine type.
