Meta-question - if the XML requests secure, but TLS is disabled, should
we instead be failing to start the domain with a complaint that we can't
honor the XML?
If the answer is that we should start the domain anyways, and there is
just no security, because whoever disabled tls in qemu.conf knows what
they are doing, then ACK. If the answer is that we should error out on
an impossible configuration, then

this needs an else clause that errors out.
