In there due to !HAVE_LIBATTR virFileGetXAttrQuiet will return
ENOSYS and from there the chain will error out.

That is wrong and looks like:
   libvirtd[6320]: internal error: child reported (status=125):
   libvirtd[6320]: Unable to remove disk metadata on vm testguest from
   /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/testguest.qcow (disk target vda)

This change makes virSecurityDACMoveImageMetadataHelper accept that
error code gracefully and in that sense it is an extension of:
5214b2f1a3f "security: Don't skip label restore on file systems lacking XATTRs"
which does the same for other call chains into the virFile*XAttr functions.

The SELinux driver can use the same treatment (although you won't hit it because ubuntu uses apparmor instead). You have my Reviewed by if you do the same change to virSecuritySELinuxMoveImageMetadataHelper().
