On i386 and amd64, openstack puts 'OpenStack Nova', into the dmi platform
information. OpenStack using kvm on arm64, does not identify itself to the
guest in any way.

We need two things
 a.) change openstack to provide that information through libvirt on arm.
 b.) fix qemu bug 1662345 that prevents the information from getting to the guest.
