Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The dmi id for Nutanix cloud instances was added to the detection list
     for it to be properly detected as KVM.

   [Test Case]

   * create a vm (uvt-kvm create --no-start vm_name release=xenial)
   * virsh edit vm_name (and create or update sysinfo manufacturer to be "nutanix", like https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/C5mkc2B7rx/)
   * install landscape-client/common and call landscape-config
   * see the computer is detected as kvm

  [Regression Potential]

   * The hypervisor detection change is both trivial and similar to
  previous changes and is specific enough not to conflict with other
  hypervisors.

  [Other Info]

   * Patches are already in the upstreams trunk.
   * Changes have been tested by some affected users
