ensuring we don't inflict Omicron#5112 on instances due to our own changes: boot option descriptions are load-bearing, so we've changed them make sure we think through the consequences. i'm pleasantly surprised that EfiLoadOption just.. worked here. yay.

the procedure that gets us names we see for guest disks today is a bit subtle, but i've tried to document it fully to pair with the expectation in this test.

there are also specific conditions where failing this assertion is fine - say, if we've done #787, or changed how we're processing UEFI boot variables. just, as things are right now, we're surprisingly dependent on dancing with OVMF in exactly the same way every time a guest boots.
