Robb Romans 59a201bdf2 Remove kvm as a hypervisor_type argument
QEMU is used whether specifying either qemu or kvm as an argument to
hypervisor_type. Therefore, remove kvm as a supported argument.

<para>The following keys, together with the components to which they are specific, can be used
with the <option>property</option> option for both the <command>glance
