Takashi Kajinami 03055de176 Detect maximum number of SEV guests automatically
Libvirt has implemented the capability to expose maximum number of
SEV guests and SEV-ES guests in 8.0.0[1][2]. This allows nova to detect
maximum number of memory encrypted guests using that feature.
The detection is not used if the [libvirt] num_memory_encrypted_guests
option is set to preserve the current behavior.

Note that current nova supports only SEV and does not support SEV-ES,
so this implementation only uses the maximum number of SEV guests.
The maximum number of SEV-ES guests will be used in case we implement
support for SEV-ES.

Now the libvirt driver is capable to detect maximum number of guests with
memory encrypted which can run concurrently in its compute host using
the new fields in libvirt API available since version 8.0.0.
