+Enable the use of SVE feature for the guest and set the maximum vector length
+that a guest's Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) can use. Or disable it by
+specifying "disabled", which is the default value.
+Allowed values are "disabled", "128", "256", "384", "512", "640", "768", "896",
+"1024", "1152", "1280", "1408", "1536", "1664", "1792", "1920", "2048", "hw".
+Specifying "hw" means that the maximum vector length supported by the platform
+will be used.
+Please be aware that if a specific vector length is passed and its value is
+above the maximum vector length supported by the platform, an error will be
+raised.
