Use EnsureDirs in KVM as well.

The KVM hypervisor has also code to ensure a list of directories exist.
Substitute it with our new utils function.

Remove the extra_args parameter in instance start

This patch removes the extra_args parameter and instead switches the
instance to the HV_KERNEL_ARGS hypervisor option.

This is a big change, but it's a needed cleanup, this extra parameter on
all RPC calls is not generic and we also need to have a persistent value...

Simplify a little the hypervisor routines

Instead of “instance.hvparams”, we use a shorter “hvp” name to make readability

KVM: allow netboot

With this patch we allow KVM instances to be booted off the network.
The only issue is that this is not compatible with virtio nics, so
we disallow them, when booting from the net.

KVM: actually support different nic types

When executing the KVM runtime we load the nic type from the runtime
hvparams and use it to specify the nic model type. As for the disk we
translate the DEV_PARAVIRTUAL type to 'virtio'.

They'll be used to set the nic type when we execute the runtime, since

The VNC base port has nothing to do with HVM itself, and is general to

Support cdrom image and boot order for KVM

The cdrom image has the same meaning than in Xen HVM, and so does
boot_order, even though it has a slightly different syntax, and uses the
