Up till now, there was only one format for NVRAM store file.
However, it's possible to convert the file to qcow2 (which
supports interesting features, like snapshotting, for instance).
Therefore, we want to allow format selection over the NVRAM store
file. By default, the format is raw, but users can choose qcow2.
In the domain XML this is expressed as @format attribute to
<nvram/> element.
