The 'qemuserver' prefix in the commit title doesn't add any information
and should not be there. Commit title prefixes are not for file names.
This also doesn't fix the issue yet, so I'd also drop that prefix too.

Nit: Since the 'media=cdrom' option is used to decide this, I'd state
"CD-ROM" here to be more precise. I'd also say "for starting the VM"
rather than "for booting the VM". The device isn't necessarily involved
into booting, but can still be considered essential to allow starting
the VM.

There should be some checking/handling in the API endpoints and/or
parse_drive() for making sure this can only be set in combination with
'media=cdrom'. There are already such checks in parse_drive() which will
return undef in those cases, but please also issue a warning for a new
such check so that it will be clear what went wrong ;)
Nit: Usually, it's nicer to have booleans be 0 if not present. So can we
invert this e.g. "ignore-if-missing" (or "detach-if-missing" or
"eject-if-missing")? Otherwise, maybe "essential-for-start" to be more
descriptive?
