Implement USB controller extra spec for libvirt.
This is the implementation for the USB controller extra spec as desired by the new libvirt spice-direct console mode. USB device redirection support is a frequently requested feature for VDI users. Change-Id: I71edd03b5c63a8028c23a746c01c59d303994144 Signed-off-by: Michael Still <mikal@stillhq.com>

The `hw:sound_model` flavor extra spec and the matching `hw_sound_model`
|

image property were added to allow the configuration of a sound device

within an instance. This is useful with the new spice-direct console

type. The default remains no sound device, but when using the libvirt
|
||||
hypervisor driver you can select from `sb16`, `es1370`, `pcspk`, `ac97`,
|

`ich6`, `ich9`, `usb`, and `virtio`. For most use-cases `usb` is
|

likely to be the best choice unless you have at least libvirt 8.2.0 and

libvirt 10.4.0.

``hw:redirected_usb_ports`` / ``hw_redirected_usb_ports`` pair which

controls how many ports the USB controller has. This number will

vary based on the USB controller selected. The default remains no

USB controller, but when using the libvirt hypervisor driver you can

now also select from ``qemu_xhci`` and ``nec_xhci``.
