It would have been easier to go w/o a separate object but I went this
way since 'image' is a separate node in the config and I would assume
its for a reason. One reason that comes to mind is that in future
there might be some other options being added here?
We don't always go with 'one node' = 'one class', see the <os>
node for
example, or gvir_config_domain_disk_set_startup_policy (various other
similar examples in this case).
For xml nodes that are very simple, they generally are modelled along with
the parent node, we can always deprecate the simple setter in the parent
node if the node gets more complex in the future.
It's something to decide on a case by case basis, but here I'd tend to go
with the simpler approach.
