Security Issues

* The 'SSBD' and 'VIRT-SSBD' cpu flags have been added to the list
  of available choices for the "[libvirt]/cpu_model_extra_flags"
  config option. These are important for proper mitigation of the
  Spectre 3a and 4 CVEs. Note that the use of either of these flags
  require updated packages below nova, including libvirt, qemu
  (specifically >=2.9.0 for virt-ssbd), linux, and system firmware.
