Currently the 'nvram_template' entry is mandatory when parsing the
firmware descriptor based on flash. QEMU is extending the firmware
descriptor spec to make the 'nvram_template' optional, depending
on the value of a new 'mode' field:
- "split"
* "executable" contains read-only CODE
* "nvram_template" contains read-write VARS
- "combined"
* "executable" contains read-write CODE and VARs
* "nvram_template" not present
- "stateless"
* "executable" contains read-only CODE and VARs
* "nvram_template" not present
In the latter case, the guest OS can write vars but the
firmware will make no attempt to persist them, so any changes
will be lost at poweroff.
For now we parse this new 'mode' but discard any firmware
which is not 'mode=split' when matching for a domain.
In the tests we have a mixture of files with and without the
mode attribute.

Test firmware description parsing so far.
The test files come from three locations:
1) ovmf-sb-keys.json and ovmf-sb.json come from OVMF
package from RHEL-7 (with slight name change to reflect their
features in filename too),
2) bios.json and aavmf.json come from example JSON documents from
firmware.json from qemu's git (3a0adfc9bf),
3) ovmf.json is then copied from ovmf-sb.json and stripped
of SECURE_BOOT and REQUIRES_SMM flags, OVMF path change,
description update and machine type expanded for both pc and q35
machine types.
