Add a new element to the <os> block:

Which maps to -boot,menu=on|off on the QEMU command line.
I decided to use an explicit 'enable' attribute rather than just make the bootmenu element boolean. This allows us to treat lack of a bootmenu element as 'use hypervisor default'.

I'm wondering what we should do if we need a further option to turn on/off the PXE boot menus that SEABIOS now adds to QEMU for each NIC. I guess that might be a separate <bootmenu> element within the <interface> device so probably wouldn't impact this modelling
Yeah, I think we eventually need some sort of <boot> element at the device level anyways, to support booting off hdb instead of hda for example. But yeah, I don't think it should affect this patch. - Cole
