I was thinking of something like like this:

$ scripts/sat_config --interactive --enable KVM_AMD

This would then prompt the user with a range of solutions for getting
KVM_AMD enabled.

Then there might be an "I'm feeling lucky" variant like:

$ scripts/sat_config --first-solution --enable KVM_AMD

Where instead of prompting the user it just picks some arbitrary or
"minimal" set of changes that leads to KVM_AMD being enabled.

Totally, please consider this a "yes, and" not a "but".
