Boris Bobrov 2b0024c040 Switch to uses_virtio to enable iommu driver for AMD SEV
In order to use AMD SEV, devices that use virtio should also use
iommu driver. The problem is to understand that a device uses virtio,
because there are many attributes and values that can indicate it.
For example, it can be `model='virtio'` for rng and
`<target bus='virtio'/>` for disk.

Add new property for devices `uses_virtio`, that will indicate that a
device in its current configuration is a virtio device, and implement it
for known devices.

The patch does not change how resulting libvirt XMLs look and does not
fix user-visible bugs. This refactoring is required for further work on
AMD SEV related patches.

The changes to memballoon-related tests were required because the tests
were using fake values that does are not possible in real life and that
were preventing tests of the new method. The tests now use the value
that nova currently uses to generate libvirt xml.

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more), Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.

Use the following resources to learn more.

API

To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:

For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:

Operators

To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.

Further developer focused documentation is available at:

Other Information

During each Summit and Project Team Gathering, we agree on what the whole community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can be found at:
