Given that, how will I choose if I want to launch a 32bit or a 64bit VM
guest?
When on a x86_64 host, KVM doesn't emulate a pure 32-bit VM. It just
provides a regular x86_64 virtual machine, which happenss to be able
to run i686 operating systems, by virtue of the x86_64/i686 instruction
set compatability.
