virt-install: Require --osinfo for non-x86 HVM case too

Browse Source 
It's generally not as valuable for non-x86 where we don't have the
history of supporting non-virtio OSes, but as time goes on it will
likely become more relevant for non-x86 arches, so let's make this
change now to get ahead of it.

By default, virt-install will always attempt ``--osinfo detect=on``
for appropriate install media. If no OS is detected, we will fail
in certain common cases (x86 KVM for example). This fatal error was
added in 2022. You can work around this by using the fallback example
in most common cases. This fatal error was added in 2022. You can
work around this by using the fallback example
above, or disabling the ``require`` option. If you just need to get back
to the old non-fatal behavior ASAP, set the environment variable
VIRTINSTALL_OSINFO_DISABLE_REQUIRE=1.
