RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

There are virtual machines which needs to be started on host's boot up, 
known as autostart feature. 

We should expose this through cockpit UI. Already present in virt-manager:

With the VM down: Select the VM > Open > Details > Boot Options

With virsh: virsh autostart <domain>

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


kernel-4.18.0-67.el8.x86_64
cockpit-machines-184.1-1.el8.noarch


How reproducible:

100% 

Actual results:

There is no option to configure guest to autostart when host boots up 
through cockpit UI.

Expected results:

Expose this option for users to be able to set this feature.

This feature landed in Cockpit 188, so it will go into 8.1.
