I'll push it in a while with the fix squashed in.  Just one small note,
the test adjustments should be part of the commits that change the
code, if possible, every commit should pass all checks.

Right, in our tests/clitest.py:295 we have these lines:

            if "--ram " not in cli:
                args += " --ram 64"

If we remove them, it would break a lot of test cases and we would have
to add the --memory line to every single group of test case, that would
be one solution, another that I was able to think of is that we can add
a special "--memory osinfo" option to explicitly test this new feature.
We would have to remove that option from command line in the test suite.
