+  * qemu: auto-fill of incomplete NUMA topologies

+    Domains with incomplete NUMA topologies, where the sum of vCPUs in all NUMA
+    cells is less than the total of vCPUs, will get their first NUMA cell to
+    be auto-filled with the remaining vCPUs. This behavior reproduces what QEMU
+    already does in these cases. Users are encouraged to provide complete NUMA
+    topologies to avoid unexpected changes in the domain XML.
