Julia Kreger 348e965114 preserve secure information on xml changes
When setting parameters revolving around boot
mode, options, firmware, it is necessary to
extract and edit the XML document.

Some details, however, are not automatically
extracted and libvirt must be told to provide
secure information. This change prevents us
from accidently loosing such configuration
parameters
