I had been planning on doing a companion patch to this one that renamed
the existing options property to be setupOptions, to make it more clear
which is which.  However, I abandoned that plan for a couple reasons.
First, this is established API that I didn't want to break.  Second,
"options" is used very extensively throughout blivet and this is a code
base I am far from an expert in.

I am sure that if anyone else wanted to take care of that patch, though,
it would be welcome - at least on master.
