Also, flip Bhyve /domain/os/type support from HVM to Xen. Bhyve only
supports paravirtualized guests, and 'xen' is closest to that. We still
default to bhyveloader(1) if no explicit bootloader configuration is
supplied in the domain.
If the /domain/bootloader looks like grub-bhyve and the user doesn't
supply /domain/bootloader_args, we make an intelligent guess and try
chainloading the first partition on the disk.
Caveats:
- We can't install from CD without explicit bootloader_args.
- We leave a device.map file lying around in /tmp. I don't see a good
way not to do so without reworking the API somewhat.
