this one is only used by GuestImport above AFAICT, should we use this
opportunity and give it a better name to make it clear that this should
not be used in general? we use it there to get a base path for creating
a tmpdir inside for extracting the OVA, and might want to switch to some
other subdir in the future..

this one is not used anywhere, should we drop it?

should we skip this if `$vtype` is `images`, to improve backwards
compat? otherwise this would break migrating back from new to old nodes,
right?

should this be called by qemu-server? see comments there ;)

I am not sure that's a good approach - we want to sunset 'images' and
'rootdir' at some point, and we don't allow users to opt-into not
allowing the legacy types if we do this?
