beforedefine.xml

Description of problem:
I'm using imagefactory in F24 and in doing so I get an error during the run of imagefactory.

I have boiled this down to the fact that the "extra xml" that libvirt generates to supplement the provided xml that was given on "define" causes the domain to be unstartable. I believe this is because the in f24 the video model line is `<model type='cirrus' vram='16384' heads='1' primary='yes'/>` where in f23 it was `<model type='cirrus' vram='16384' heads='1'/>`.

Attached there are a few files that can be used to demonstrate the problem and\or investigate the generated libvirt xml.


```
[root@cloudhost ~]# virsh define beforedefine.xml 
Domain imagefactory defined from beforedefine.xml

[root@cloudhost ~]# virsh start imagefactory
error: Failed to start domain imagefactory
error: unsupported configuration: non-primary video device must be type of 'qxl'

[root@cloudhost ~]# virsh dumpxml imagefactory > afterdefinef24.xml 
[root@cloudhost ~]# 

```



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@cloudhost ~]# rpm -q libvirt-daemon-kvm 
libvirt-daemon-kvm-1.3.3-2.fc24.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. virsh define beforedefine.xml
2. virsh start imagefactory

Thanks for the report. It's probably this commit, I'll confirm and do a build soon

    conf: also mark the implicit video as primary
    
    Commit 119cd06 started setting the primary bool for the first
    user-specified video even if user omitted the 'primary' attribute.
    
    However this was done before the addition of the implicit device.
    This broke startup of transient qemu domains with no <video>:
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325757
    
    Move this default to virDomainDefPostParseInternal,
    after the addition of the implicit video device, to catch the implicit
    video as well.
