[openstack-dev] [Fuel][UX] Throw KVM\QEMU and leave Libvirt on Wizard

Hello,

Agree with Kevin. libvirt itself isn't a hypervisor. It's an API (or
single entry point) for dealing with other hypervisors, including qemu
and kvm.

So it's kinda confusing, I'd prefer to find another solution.

Thanks,
Igor
