[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server v10 2/4] config: add AMD SEV support

This patch is for enabling AMD SEV (Secure Encrypted Virtualization)
support in QEMU.

VM-Config-Examples:
amd_sev: type=std,no-debug=1,no-key-sharing=1
amd_sev: es,no-debug=1,kernel-hashes=1

kernel-hashes, reduced-phys-bios & cbitpos correspond to the variables
with the same name in QEMU.

kernel-hashes=1 adds kernel-hashes to enable measured linux kernel
launch since it is per default off for backward compatibility.

reduced-phys-bios and cbitpos are system specific and are read out by
the query-machine-capabilities.service on boot and saved to the
/run/qemu-server/host-hw-capabilities.json file. This file is parsed
and than used by qemu-server to correctly start a AMD SEV VM.

type=std stands for standard sev to differentiate it from sev-es (es)
or sev-snp (snp) when support is upstream.

QEMU's sev-guest policy gets calculated with the parameters nodbg
& noks. These parameters correspond to policy-bits 0 & 1. If type is
'es' than policy-bit 2 gets set to 1 to activate SEV-ES. Policy bit 3
(nosend) is always set to 1, because migration features for sev are
not upstream yet and are attackable.

SEV-ES is highly experimental since it could not be tested.
