e88367095f qemu: populate <audio> element with default config
Currently the QEMU driver secretly sets the QEMU_AUDIO_DRV env variable

 - VNC - set to "none", unless passthrough of host env variable is set
 - SPICE - always set to "spice"
 - SDL - always passthrough host env
 - No graphics - set to "none", unless passthrough of host env variable is set

The setting of the QEMU_AUDIO_DRV env variable is done in the code which
configures graphics.

If no <audio> element is present, we now auto-populate <audio> elements
to reflect this historical default config. This avoids need to set audio
env when processing graphics.

e1b022890e schemas: Introduce disk type NVMe
There is this class of PCI devices that act like disks: NVMe.
Therefore, they are both PCI devices and disks. While we already
have <hostdev/> (and can assign a NVMe device to a domain
successfully) we don't have disk representation. There are three
problems with PCI assignment in case of a NVMe device:

1) domains with <hostdev/> can't be migrated

2) NVMe device is assigned whole, there's no way to assign only a
   namespace

3) Because hypervisors see <hostdev/> they don't put block layer
   on top of it - users don't get all the fancy features like
   snapshots

NVMe namespaces are way of splitting one continuous NVDIMM memory
into smaller ones, effectively creating smaller NVMe-s (which can
then be partitioned, LVMed, etc.)

Because of all of this the following XML was chosen to model a
NVMe device:

  <disk type='nvme' device='disk'>
    <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
    <source type='pci' managed='yes' namespace='1'>
      <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
    </source>
    <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
  </disk>
