I've pushed this now, with follow up patches to handle a couple points we
discussed:

- Remove the nvram deletion from delete.py, since it won't work in the
non-root case, and all uses of nvram should also be with a libvirt + driver
that provides UNDEFINE_NVRAM

- Before using UNDEFINE_NVRAM, match the same condition that libvirt uses:
loader_ro is True and loader_type == "pflash" and bool(nvram)

Thanks,
