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.

We need to change the flow from

* set capabilities defaults
* build installer
* fill in all guest defaults
To
* parse boot and metadata strings
* set capabilities defaults
* build installer
* set --name default
* parse all the remaining strings
* fill in all guest defaults
Because --disk parsing depends on --name for some path generation.
So this fixes --disk names when --name is implicitly specified by

For the x86 + hvm case, failure to specify an --osinfo/--os-variant
OS, and failure to detect an OS from install media, will now throw
a big error:
```
--os-variant/--osinfo OS name is required, but no value was
set or detected.
This is now a fatal error. Specifying an OS name is required
for modern, performant, and secure virtual machine defaults.
If you expected virt-install to detect an OS name from the
install media, you can set a fallback OS name with:
--osinfo detect=on,name=OSNAME
You can see a full list of possible OS name values with:
virt-install --osinfo list
If your Linux distro is not listed, try one of generic values
such as: linux2020, linux2018, linux2016
If you just need to get the old behavior back, you can use:
--osinfo detect=on,require=off
Or export VIRTINSTALL_OSINFO_DISABLE_REQUIRE=1
```
The thread goes into more detail, but basically, for x86 VMs at least,
it's unlikely you will _ever_ want the default 'generic' behavior,
which gives gives no virtio, no PCIe, no usb3, IDE disks, slow
network devices, etc.
Many people use virt-install in scripts and CI, and this may now
cause breakage. The environment variable is there to help them
get things back to normal as quick as possible, but it will still
noisy up their logs with the warning to hopefully get them to make
a useful change to their virt-install invocations.
This is limited to x86, since that's where most of our defaults
historically differ, and where we can depend on libosinfo to give
the most accurate device info. This may be relevant to change for
other KVM architectures in the future.

Historically over time it's been more likely that an issue is reported
for osinfo-db missing the usb-tablet annotation. So for example we
always enable it for the default 'generic' case. We also want to
enable it for osinfo's 'unknown' case too.
Rather than add another check for that, let's just drop the osinfo
checking entirely. Some very old OS don't support usb-tablet, but
specifying it for those cases doesn't cause issues AFAIK, and users
can override it with `--input none` if they want.

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
Signed-off-by: Cole Robinson <crobinso@redhat.com>
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.

The bare metal world is moving to a situation where UEFI is going to be
the only supported firmware and there will be a strong expectation for
TPM and SecureBoot support.
With this in mind, if we're enabling UEFI on a VM, it makes sense to
also provide a TPM alongside it.
Since this requires swtpm to be installed we can't do this
unconditionally. The forthcoming libvirt release expands the domain
capabilities to report whether TPMs are supported, so we check that.

When setting CPU defaults we want to force create the topology even if

In real world silicon though it is rare to have high socket/die counts,

The product of sockets * dies * cores * threads must be equal to the

Any missing values in the topology need to be calculated based on the
other values which are set.
We can take account of fact that 'total_vcpus' treats any unset values
as being 1 to simplify the way we set topology defaults.
This ensures that topology defaulting takes account of dies.

We should only be returning a driver_type value for volumes that

Usually, when storage volume is attached as a disk and disk xml is filled with
default values, the "<driver type=...>" value is copied from volume's
"<format type=...>". This makes sense for volumes of storage pool of type
"dir", where format types include "raw, qcow2...".
However, the same approach cannot be used for the storage pool of type "disk".
In that case, format types include "none, linux, fat16, fat32...". Such formats
cannot be used for disk's "<driver type=...>".
Therefore, when generating disk XML for volume of storage pool type "disk",
driver type should always be "raw".

libvirt recently changed the nodedev names for mediated devices due to
the fact that mdevctl supports defining multiple mediated devices with
the same UUID as long as only one is active at a time. This means that
the nodedev name changed from the format 'mdev_$UUID' to the format
'mdev_$UUID_$PARENT'.
Unfortunately, virt-install was parsing the nodedev name to extract the
UUID of a mediated device. This fails with the new name format.

Shuffling bits of code around, adding comments and grouping CLI options
to make the code easier to read and understand at a glance.
Brings the ordering of XML options in line with libvirt's own output as
implemented in `src/conf/cpu_conf.c` and `src/conf/numa_conf.c`.
This includes support for the following options:
* numa.interconnects.latency[0-9]*.initiator
* numa.interconnects.latency[0-9]*.target
* numa.interconnects.latency[0-9]*.cache
* numa.interconnects.latency[0-9]*.type
* numa.interconnects.latency[0-9]*.value
* numa.interconnects.latency[0-9]*.unit
* The same suboptions for `numa.interconnects.bandwith[0-9]*`
Note that the cache= attribute is only explicitly defined for <latency>
nodes in the documentation. However, since <latency> and <bandwidth>
nodes are otherwise identical, the docs also don't explicitly forbid it
for <bandwidth> nodes, and libvirt happily accepts XML that does specify
it for for <bandwidth> nodes, this implements the cache= attribute for
<bandwidth> elements as well.
This includes support for the following options:
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.level
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.associativity
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.policy
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.size.value
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.size.unit
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.line.value
* numa.cell[0-9]*.cache[0-9]*.line.unit
This includes support for the following options:
* `emulatorsched.scheduler`
* `emulatorsched.priority`
* `iothreadsched.iothreads`
* `iothreadsched.scheduler`
* `iothreadsched.priority`
This includes support for the following options:
* `shares`
* `period`
* `quota`
* `global_period`
* `global_quota`
* `emulator_period`
* `emulator_quota`
* `iothread_period`
* `iothread_quota`
libvirt 7.2.0 introduced support for a list of firmware features
that should or should not be present. Libvirt takes these into
account when auto-selecting a firmware. Currently supported features
are `enrolled-keys` and `secure-boot`.
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/>)

Since libvirt v6.9, the element <transient/> is to configure a disk
which discards its changes while VM was active. Support this element
by cmdline option `--disk ...,transient=on`.

xorisso is the still maintained isoinfo alternative, and may be
the only iso reading tool in RHEL9, so we need to support it.
Make it the default for our spec file and test suite too

Bhyve requires explicit loader configuration. So query
domain capabilities, try to find the "official"
firmware and configure all the necessary loader options.

Various checks in the test suite try to match for error/status messages,
so using a localized libvirt (or even using translations of an installed
version of virt-manager in the system) makes those check fail.
Hence, force (using $LANG, and unsetting $LANGUAGE) an English UTF-8
locale.
Thanks Cole Robinson for spotting the right place where to inject the
locale settings.

Make it work more like gfxdetails. The problem with the current
approach is that it requires effectively rebuilding the whole device
to match the original device when we want to edit a single field,
which is error prone.
