feat(instances): a new VM can have UEFI Secure Boot and a TPM 2.0

Windows 11 does not install without Secure Boot and a TPM 2.0, and the new
VM form offered neither: its firmware list was BIOS and one UEFI loader
guessed from file names, which on RHEL never matched the Secure Boot one.

The firmware choices are now BIOS, UEFI and UEFI Secure Boot, as the
host's libvirt reports them (its firmware features from libvirt 12.1,
before that its loaders), and libvirt picks the firmware itself: UEFI
without Secure Boot, or with Microsoft's keys enrolled. A TPM 2.0 switch,
shown when the host has swtpm, adds an emulated TPM. The create job
refuses a firmware or a TPM the host does not offer, and the API takes
both. The path-guessing helpers are gone.

The new VM form offers UEFI, UEFI Secure Boot (with Microsoft's keys, for Windows 11) and a TPM 2.0 only when the host's libvirt finds the UEFI firmware and swtpm: install `ovmf swtpm-tools` (Debian / Ubuntu) or `edk2-ovmf swtpm swtpm-tools` (RHEL family) if they are missing.
2. For SSH connections, give the user the panel runs as an SSH key and copy it to the compute node. **Use only the block for your installation type:** a key set up with the host commands is not seen by the panel in Docker. `ssh-copy-id` asks for the compute node's root password once. `accept-new` accepts a new host's key on first connect and refuses a changed one.
**Installer or manual installation**, on the panel host:
