Add support for VMs with no box

Vagrant already supports VMs without boxes with Docker.
We leverage this in libvirt as well. The use case for this is to PXE
oot a vagrant VM that is then installed over the network then
installed over the network; a different use case would be to test PXE
booted clients that do not use a hard drive whatsoever.

## No box and PXE boot
There is support for PXE booting VMs with no disks as well as PXE booting VMs with blank disks. There are some limitations:
* No provisioning scripts are ran
* No network configuration is being applied to the VM
* No SSH connection can be made
* ```vagrant halt``` will only work cleanly if the VM handles ACPI shutdown signals
In short, VMs without a box can be created, halted and destroyed but all other functionality cannot be used.
An example for a PXE booted VM with no disks whatsoever:
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.define :pxeclient do |pxeclient|
pxeclient.vm.provider :libvirt do |domain|
domain.boot 'network'
end
end
## SSH Access To VM
vagrant-libvirt supports vagrant's [standard ssh settings](https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/vagrantfile/ssh_settings.html).
