In 8e1804f9f6 I've tried to fix the following use case: domain
is started with path to UEFI only and relies on libvirt to figure
out corresponding NVRAM template to create a per-domain copy
from. The fix consisted of having a check tailored exactly for
this use case and if it's hit then using FW autoselection to
figure it out. Unfortunately, the NVRAM template is not saved in
the inactive XML (well, the domain might be transient anyway).
Then, as a part of that check we see whether the per-domain copy
doesn't exist already and if it does then no template is looked
up hence no template will appear in the live XML.
This works, until the domain is migrated. At the destination, the
per-domain copy will not exist so we need to know the template to
create the per-domain copy from. But we don't even get to the
check because we are not starting a fresh new domain and thus the
qemuFirmwareFillDomain() function quits early.
The solution is to switch order of these two checks. That is
evaluate the check for the old style before checking flags.

==============================
Libvirt API for virtualization
==============================
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management
daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the
API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other
languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as
mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
