Change subject: restapi: Enable support for Vm Boot menu
......................................................................


Patch Set 1:

If I understand correctly the bug, what we want to do here is to provide some 
parameters to the BIOS of the VM, not to the operating system. So placing this 
inside "os" is a bit misleading. We should probably add a new element to 
represent those parameters, as we may want to add more in the future, the menu 
timeout, for example. What about something like this?

  <vm>
    <bios>
      <boot_menu>
        <enabled>true|false</enabled>
      </boot_menu>
    </bios>
  </vm>

This gives us room for adding more elements in the future, for example:

  <vm>
    <bios>
      <boot_menu>
        <enabled>true|false</enabled>
        <timeout>10</timeout>
      </boot_timeout>
    </bios>
  </vm>

I'm not 100% sure about the name of this, maybe BIOS is not the right name, as 
it can also be EFI, or OpenFirmware. Maybe a more generic name is more 
appropiate, for example "boot_rom". Gustavo, Lenoardo, Vitor, ho does this look 
from the PPC point of view?
