Virtual instance rescue with stable disk devices

Registered by Daniel Berrange

This will provide the ability to indicate that the rescue disk image
should be attached as a transient disk device (ie USB stick), so that
existing storage attached to an instance doesn't change its device
address during rescue mode.
