virt-install: Enable all devices for non-HVM
15
While things like sound devs and watchdogs are HVM only, encoding
16
this info into virt-install is kind of useless: having these devices
17
in the XML is misleading, but not harmful. This will save bug

VirtualDisk: Support floppy 'dir' mode (fat:floppy for qemu)
425
util: Don't limit random mac addr range
427
This function was originally taken from xen, which limited the range
428
to reserve some MAC addresses for possible internal testing. Doesn't
429
seem like it was ever leveraged in practice, and libvirt doesn't
430
limit mac generation in a similar way, so just drop it.

533
Guest: Make set_defaults a public function.
535
API users can run this before the install step to fill in guest
536
defaults. This step isn't required, but can be useful to get a full

idea of what XML will be created.
