Subject: [PATCH] conf: Extend <loader/> and introduce <nvram/>

Up to now, users can configure BIOS via the <loader/> element. With

the upcoming implementation of UEFI this is not enough as BIOS and

UEFI are conceptually different. For instance, while BIOS is ROM, UEFI

is programmable flash (although all writes to code section are

denied). Therefore we need new attribute @type which will

differentiate the two. Then, new attribute @readonly is introduced to

reflect the fact that some images are RO.

Moreover, the OVMF (which is going to be used mostly), works in two

modes:

1) Code and UEFI variable store is mixed in one file.

2) Code and UEFI variable store is separated in two files

The latter has advantage of updating the UEFI code without losing the

configuration. However, in order to represent the latter case we need

yet another XML element: <nvram/>. Currently, it has no additional

attributes, it's just a bare element containing path to the variable

store file.
