Andrea Bolognani ccf4aa37a0 conf: Remove some firmware validation checks
libvirt 8.6.0 introduced these checks and very clearly delineated
two possible firmware selection scenarios: manual firmware
selection, where the user is responsible for providing all
information, and firmware autoselection, where a list of desired
features is provided and everything else is handled by libvirt.

In the interest of maintaining the clear separation between these
two scenarios, setting most attributes when firmware autoselection
is active will result in the configuration being rejected.

This works fine, but is unnecessarily restrictive: in most cases,
the additional information that the user has provided matches
the information that libvirt would have discovered on its own by
looking at firmware descriptors, and asking the user to scrub it
from the XML only result in pointless friction.

Remove these checks entirely.

Unsurprisingly, this results in a few test cases that were
rejected until now to suddenly start working and producing
sensible results.

The firmware-auto-efi-loader-path-nonstandard test case is
notable: while we can now enable the xml2xml part of the test,
the xml2argv part is still failing, although in a slightly
different way. This is expected: since the firmware binary is a
non-standard one, libvirt is unable to figure out the missing
information from a firmware descriptor, and the configuration
is still ultimately an invalid one. However, if we were to find
such a configuration on disk at daemon startup, we would not
ignore it completely and instead would offer the user a chance
to fix it.
