Description of problem:
Some improvement for 'Clone virtual machine' dialog UI

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-1.4.0-2.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open virt-manager.
2. Right click a guest and select 'Clone' to open 'Clone virtual machine' dialog.
3. Press 'Alt' key and check 'Details' button doesn't have a mnemonic charactor.
4. Click 'Details' button at right side of networking mac address and set foucs to New MAC text entry, then Press 'Enter' key.
   The "Change MAC address" dialog doesn't close.
5. Click 'Clone this disk (X GiB)' button, then click Details to open "Change storage path' dialog.
6. Set foucs to New Path text entry and press 'Enter' key.
   The "Change storage path" dialog doesn't close.

Actual results:
as in steps.

Expected results:
1) It's better to add a mnemonic charactor for 'Details' button at right side of networking mac address.
2) It's better to bind 'Enter' key to OK button as with 'Esc' to Cancel button did for "Change MAC address" dialog and "Chagne storage path" dialog.

There could be more than one network interface and each has the "Details..." button so it would be confusing to set a mnemonic character.

Virt-manager doesn't bind "Enter" to any action and I don't think we should start doing it.  If user want's to use only keyboard they can easily use "Tab" to jump to the "OK" button and then press "Enter".
