This series introduces a new cmdline parameter --launch-security. All of the
options the argument takes are either completely optional or there is a
reasonable default provided. More details are available in the individual
patches.
One thing that this series doesn't address is handling virtio devices with SEV.
See, to successfully use SEV with virtio devices, there are basically 2
conditions:
1) the boot disk cannot be virtio-blk, as that doesn't work with SEV, but
virtio-scsi is fine (which means handling the virtio-scsi controller)
2) for the rest of the virtio devices, driver.iommu needs to be turned on as
the IOMMU flag enables usage of encrypted DMA.
So rather then spend more time on figuring out how to properly handle that, I
decided to start with the basic support first and continue from there.

Erik Skultety (7):
Introduce real-world AMD SEV domain capabilities
virtinst: cli: Introduce parser support for SEV launch security
virtinst: cli: Provide a default value for the 'policy' argument
virtinst: guest: Fill in SEV platform specific data automatically
virtins: guest: Provide further SEV support checks
man: Provide a documentation for the SEV feature
DO NOT MERGE: showcase a functional SEV cmdline in a simple script
