Libvirt enables blob resources for the virtio video device since 9.2.0.
It accelerates the display path due to less or no copying of pixel data.
E.g.
virt-install \
... \
--video model.type=virtio,blob=on
It results in the following domain xml:
<video>
<model type="virtio" blob="on"/>
</video>

This makes it easier for users to change video model from QXL to
different model as QXL is special and uses other attributes that are not
supported by any other model. Without this code libvirt would report
error or user would have to request `clearxml`.

conn.fetch_all_vols() is slow, taking ~0.03s every time it's used. When
handling with a large number of paths, its performance is too bad and
could stuck UI for a very long time.
DeviceDisk.paths_in_use_by is added to help handle many paths with
only one call to conn.fetch_all_vols().
Add adaptations for loongarch with the following features:

When specifying the socket.source option for filesystem devices, like
this:
--filesystem type=mount,driver.type=virtiofs,source.socket=/xyz.sock,target.dir=tag1
virt-install is writing the xml as:
<filesystem type="mount">
<source>
<socket>/xyz.sock</socket>
</source>
<target dir="tag1"/>
<driver type="virtiofs"/>
</filesystem>
This produces an error such as:
ERROR missing source information for device mount_tag1
But the socket should be an attribute of source rather than a child
element. After this patch, the same command results in the following XML
and no error is produced:
<filesystem type="mount">
<source socket="/xyz.sock"/>
<target dir="tag1"/>
<driver type="virtiofs"/>
</filesystem>

Properly setting the metadata cache size can provide better performance
in case of using big qcow2 images.
This patch introduces two driver options:
* driver.metadata_cache.max_size
* driver.metadata_cache.max_size.unit
E.g. --disk ...,driver.type=qcow2,\
driver.metadata_cache.max_size=2,\
driver.metadata_cache.max_size.unit=MiB
BTW, Metadata cache size control is currently supported only for qcow2.
Regarding how to properly caluclate the cache size of qcow2, Please refer
to qemu's documentation.

This allows support for host/guest clipboard sharing when using vnc
guests (and possibly other graphics types in the future). This channel
is similar to the spicevmc channel, but it contains a couple additional
options to enable/disable clipboard sharing and specify the mouse mode.
In the case of spice, these settings are specified on the 'graphics'
element, but for qemu-vdagent, they are specified on the channel. For
example:
--channel=qemu-vdagent,source.clipboard.copypaste=on,source.mouse.mode=client

Via the virt-manager UI we aren't converting relative path to
absolute path, even though we do it internally when needed.
We were benefiting from this in the test suite in some ways, so we
need to adjust tests to strip out the dev dir on XML comparison

The code previously was just encoding the same defaults as libvirt,
which doesn't really add anything.
Instead, let's prefer type='emulator' model='tpm-crb', which
gives the most modern virtualization friendly config. When we don't
know if that will work, we mostly leave things up to libvirt to fill
in.

After checking with qemu devs, this option is not really recommended
for common usage and doesn't get used much in practice. So I don't
think it is suitable for the UI

This recommendation came from an internal discussion. The cases are
* For block storage. This means guest requests are passed through
to the host device, which seems a more reasonable default than
ignoring them
* For sparse disk images we will create. discard=unmap helps preserve
the sparseness of the disk image. If a user requests non-sparse, they
are likely more concerned with performance than saving disk space,
so we leave the default as is. We limit this to disk images we will
create, since that's the easiest case to check, and it's less clear
if we should change the behavior here for an arbitrary existing
disk image.

This is from Gerd's suggestions here:

When the guest supports it, we should use virtio. qxl is on the way
out, and the benefits are marginal and add a security and maintenance
burden.
While here, check domcaps that qxl or virtio are actually available.
Modern qemu has device modules, so device support may not be installed.

This adds support for evdev inputs which were introduced in 7.4.0,
as well as passthrough inputs and some other misc options to complete
the --input command.
New suboptions:
* source.evdev
* source.dev
* source.repeat
* source.grab
* source.grabToggle
* model
This includes support for the following suboptions:
* name (<shmem name=X>)
* role (<shmem role=X>)
* model.type (<shmem><model type=X/>)
* size (<shmem><size>X)
* size.unit (<shmem><size unit=X/>)
* server.path (<shmem><server path=X/>)
* msi.vectors (<shmem><msi vectors=X/>)
* msi.ioeventfd (<shmem><msi ioeventfd=X/>)
There are two domain XML knobs specific to NVDIMMs that
virt-install doesn't allow to set: <pmem/> and <alignsize/>.
Implement them.
