Currently, boot order can be specified per device class but there is no way to specify exact disk/NIC device to boot from.
This patch adds <boot order='N'/> element which can be used inside <disk/> and <interface/>. This is incompatible with the older os/boot element. Since not all hypervisors support per-device boot specification, new deviceboot flag is included in capabilities XML for hypervisors which understand the new boot element. Presence of the flag allows (but doesn't require) users to use the new style boot order specification.
