Charles N Wyble 13139f2b9c fix: use virsh define for VM creation instead of virt-install
virt-install requires storage pool driver which is not available on this
system. Switched to direct virsh define using XML template which works
without storage pools.

Changes:
- Replaced virt-install with virsh define + start
- Pre-create disk with qemu-img before VM definition
- Copy ISO to /var/lib/libvirt/images with proper ownership
- Use XML template with variable substitution
- VM now appears in virt-manager under QEMU/KVM connection

VM knel-football-test is now running and visible in virt-manager.
