Since v1 [1]:
- remodeled egl-headless to be a standalone graphics element instead of a
result of some automagic with graphic's <gl> element
- pushed the first 5 simple fixes that were RB'd
- fixed some nits raised during review

I forgot to mention one problem with this. Both virt-viewer and virt-manager
take the first display in the XML and try to connect to it, which obviously
fails with egl-headless since there's no backing server running within QEMU
that would return the frames, so they fail with error "Can't connect to display
egl-headless". But that's not a problem libvirt should be fixing, the tools
should look for another suitable graphics display they can connect to.
As a workaround, just provide either vnc or spice graphics before egl-headless
in the XML and both tools stop complaining.
