Daniel P. Berrangé c723a98618 qemu: split handling of distinct firmware enum conversions
The qemuFirmwareOSInterfaceTypeFromOsDefFirmware method
was added to convert from virDomainOsDefFirmware to the
qemuFirmwareOSInterface enum.

It was later also used to convert from virDomainLoader
to qemuFirmwareOSInterface in:

  commit 8e1804f9f66f13ca1412d22bf1a957b6d55a2365

    qemu_firmware: Try to autofill for old style UEFI specification

This caused compile errors with clang due to passing a
mis-matched enum type. These were later silenced by
stripping the enum types:

  commit 8fcee47807d29008632a7ad918cbe93ac0a20597
  Author: Michal Prívozník <mprivozn@redhat.com>
  Date:   Wed Jan 8 09:42:47 2020 +0100

    qemu_firmware: Accept int in qemuFirmwareOSInterfaceTypeFromOsDefFirmware()

This is still rather confusing to humans reading the
code. It is clearer to just define a separate helper
method for the virDomainLoader type conversion.

Libvirt API for virtualization

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
