[Kimchi-devel] [RFC] Change guest boot order on REST API

Propose: Kimchi allow to change boot order ("fd", "hd", "cdrom" or 
"network")

hd device can specify which disk will be booted

Rest API will receive answer from

/plugins/kimchi/<VM NAME>/bootorder

{[{"dev": "hd"}]} or a list: {[{"dev": "hd"}, {"dev": "cdrom"}]}

Doubts:

How we can edit the bootloader? Like the list above or a kind of fixed 
list?

Libvirt provides bootmenu too, which allows users to pick a device in 
the beginning. Must have it?
