The undefine operation should always be allowed to succeed
regardless of whether any NVRAM file exists. ie we should
not force the application to use the VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_NVRAM
flag. It is valid for the app to decide it wants the NVRAM
file left on disk, in the same way that disk images are left
on disk at undefine.

As I found out the discussion followed this patch didn't come to a
conclusion and this or any other patches on the matter weren't commited.
We hit the problem with inability to undefine a domain leaving nvram
untouched recently and this patch would solve it perfectly.
I think it's worth commiting IMHO and maybe the documentation should
reflect this slight change in behavior.
Any new thoughts?
Does this Cole's suggestion sounds reasonable?

As far as I understand the proposed flag would eliminate the necessity to specify all flags (SNAPSHOT, SAVE_STATE, NVRAM and some future ones) to force undefining. But this won't allow us to undefine a domain and left a nvram file untouched.
