[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server v13 2/5] 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-bits & 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 c program 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 no-debug
& no-key-sharing. 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.
