libvirt driver launching SEV-ES-encrypted instances

Registered by Takashi Kajinami

This work follows what was already done in https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/amd-sev-libvirt-support, to support SEV-enctypted instances.

AMD released new CPUs which supports new versions of SEV feature. One of them is SEV-ES which is already supported by underlying components such as kernel/qemu/libvirt/ovmf.
This work aim to extend the existing feature to allow users to select using AMD SEV-ES instead of AMD SEV as encryption mechanism to protect their instances from its hypervisor more strictly.
