The qemu driver didn't ever implement any meaningful handling for the 'preserve' action.
Forbid the flag in the qemu def validator and update the documentation to be factual.

NACK. It is a perfectly sane usecase to have "preserve" on a crash. The qemu will simply sit in that state and the user can then do virsh dump or similar.
To make this statement stronger. I use this A LOT in real life to force libvirt to leave the QEMU in that state to get dump and debug info.
We probably just need to add a commentin libvirt source somewhere relevant to the effect that "preserve" is the default behaviour from QEMU so libvirt doesn't need todo anything extra.
