[et-mgmt-tools] [PATCH] First-cut at livecd support in virt-manager

Hey,
	The attached patch demos how we might add livecd support to
virt-manager using the virtinst patches I just posted.

	The way I did in the patch isn't great, but the basic idea is that in
order to boot a LiveCD you'd go through the create wizard as follows:

  - Intro - as normal
  - Name - choose a name for the VM
  - Type - choose LiveCD instead of fully-virt or paravirt
  - Location - choose the path of the LiveCD iso or device, choose
    OS type or variant
  - Disks - default it to create no disks, but you can choose to create
    a disk too
  - Network/CPU/Finish - as normal

Cheers,
Mark.
