Compare "api name", not "display name" when selecting default target in
confirmation dialog.
And add test for this case.

Using '$' is easy to misuse in shell scripts, shell commands etc. After
all this years, lets abandon this dangerous character and move to
something safer: '@'. The choice was made after reviewing specifications
of various shells on different operating systems and this is the
character that have no special meaning in none of them.
To preserve compatibility, automatically translate '$' to '@' when
loading policy files.
- drop qid usage - it isn't really needed, especially for to-be-created
DispVMs
- use "domains_info" dict as input, instead of loading qubes.xml
directly
- nicely format "Disposable VM" entries
- simplify whitelist/blacklist handling - since qrexecpolicy always
provide a list of allowed choices, use just that
Important note: there are two names concepts:
1. Display name - name of VM, or in case of to-be-created DispVMs - a
string "Disposable VM (name-of-base-vm)"
2. API name - as in qrexec policy - $dispvm:name-of-base-vm for new
DispVMs
Externally at API level (allowed targets list, return value), API name
is used, but internally VMListModeler._entries is still indexed with
display names. This is done for more efficient (and readable) GUI
handling - because most of the time it's searched for what user have
entered.
