Nitpick: fw is more commond than fwm as an abbrevation.

Other nitpick: I'd break the directory part on a newline to fit under 80
columns, per our code style guidelines.

Otherwise, my general comments elsewhere apply it too, but it LGTM
otherwise.

I think we should add the QEMU firmware descriptors everywhere so that
they'll be usable with the libvirt-configuration firmwares field I
proposed in bug#77110.  Perhaps we can apply that one first to make this
slightly easier (it provided some `ovmf-aux-file' procedure you'll
probably want to use to locate the a locally kept .json QEMU firmware
descriptor file).
