[libvirt] [PATCH] Qemu driver: Support network-backed pflash disks.

So far libvirt domain XML only allows local filepaths that can be used to specify a loader element or its matching NVRAM disk. Given that Vms may themselves move across hypervisor hosts, it should be possible to allocate loaders/NVRAM disks on network storage for uninterrupted access. Signed-off-b
