[pve-devel] [RFC edk2-firmware] d/rules: re-enable PVSCSI support

It is not maintained anymore and got disabled by default in upstream
commit 57783adfb5 ("OvmfPkg: Change default to disable MptScsi and
PvScsi"). Re-enable it to preserve backwards compatibility in Proxmox
VE.

Or should we just keep it disabled, because it's unsupported and note
it as a known issue? There might not be too much demand, but maybe
it's better to delay it until PVE 8.0?

There also is a LSI SCSI driver which actually has a maintainer, but
was never enabled by default. But as long as there is no user demand
for it, I guess it's not worth enabling.
