We used to enable this for Fedora 18+, because systemd would
autostart a getty on /dev/hvc0 which made 'virsh console' work
out of the box for a login prompt. However now in Fedora
virtio-console is compiled as a module, and systemd doesn't
detect it in time to start a getty. So the benefit of using
it as the default is erased, and we reverted to this.

The previous setup of having an OS register a preferred videomodel is
overly simplistic and doesn't cover all our needs. Rework it without any
logic change for now, we will alter the logic in subsequent commits.

Python's os.open() defaults to mode 0777 if not explicitly specified.
Disk image files don't need to be executable, and having them world
readable isn't an ideal situation either. Owner writable and group
readable is probably more than sufficient when initially creating
them.

re-order xml values according to libvirt code.
a) move "blkiotune" "memtune" ahead of "memoryBacking"
b) move "resource" ahead of "pm"

And clean up the API mess while we are at it. Treat the key as an opaque
value that users shouldn't depend on.
Besides the improved code clarity and API layout, this will help diagnose
'key error' issues, since we'll see an object name instead of UUID which
is hard to trace back.
Do not load the devices data for each OS as most of this data will
will not be used by virt-manager. It makes the "Create new VM" wizard
faster on the first time it is accessed (~0.5s faster on my machine).

It fixes two problems:
i) "ftp://" was accepted as valid URL but then it causes this
exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/ftplib.py", line 387, in login
resp = self.sendcmd('USER ' + user)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/ftplib.py", line 243, in sendcmd
self.putcmd(cmd)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/ftplib.py", line 178, in putcmd
self.putline(line)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/ftplib.py", line 173, in putline
self.sock.sendall(line)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'sendall'
ii) only a cryptic error message "Unable to complete install: '[Errno
-2] Name or service not known'" was showed to users when the DNS
lookup failed. The exception is now intercepted and decorated with
more information.

testCPUMap() tries to open /usr/share/libvirt/cpu_map.xml file
and that fails if libvirt is not installed on the system
or cpu_map.xml path is different.
Force it to use tests/capabilities-xml/cpu_map.xml file instead.
