Have the UI push users more towards better defaults, by discouraging
the 'generic' entry and offering the 'linuxXXXX' entries when their
distro or OS version is not in the list.

Previously we tried to use a combination of distro class and version
number to produce a correct ordering that was independent of the
osinfo short ID. The original intent was to have correct ordering
for Windows entries in the virt-manager UI, since the short ID
values are all over the place.
Nowadays that doesn't really matter, since we weed out old
unsupported entries by default. And in the mean time, our current
sort method gives some weird results like interspersing silverblue
entries with fedora entries.
Using a natural/human sort is simpler and handles things pretty well.
Change the UI to sort by the OS label too which preserves some of
the good behavior of original method

Otherwise when we press enter for an already selected OS, it chooses
the first alphabetic entry in the list, overwriting our selection

This is just a big nasty commit.
Turn the OS inspection page into an always available page that
shows the libosinfo name from the domain metadata XML. Use oslist.py
and have it absorb more of the common behavior needed by create.py
and details.py. Add UI tests for it all
The current OS distro selection UI is fairly cumbersome to use. First
you need to decide on a variant, then decide a distro and then look for
the version you want. The list is filtered by default so only a subset
of OS are displayed. So for less common distros you'll then need to
start again and tell it to show all OS to try to find the one you want.
The core problem is that we have an incredibly large list and want to
make it easy for the user to find a specific entry. The modern UI
paradigm for this problem is to provide interactive search with
live updated results. The current UI does provide an interactive search
facility on the OS version results, but you still have to first select a
variant to be able to use the search which is unhelpful.
This patch attempts to better apply the search UI design to the OS selection
problem. We get rid of the notion of variants, distros and version, and
provide a single text entry box in which the user can type a few letters
of the OS name. As they type, a popover displays the matching results
filtered on OS name. By default end of life OS will be hidden, so in
general there will only be a small handful of results left after just
typing a few characters. This makes it very quick to find and select the
desired OS, without needing to provide a mutli-step navigation hierarchy.
