From: Peter Krempa <pkre...@redhat.com>

Add a note that the user/group can be overriden or relabelling disabled
using per-vm/disk <seclabel> elements instead of disabling it globally.

Add a note that read-only image labels are not restored.

Closes: https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/512
