As reported in the community forum [0], enrolling the new certificate will trigger BitLocker recovery. It doesn't seem to be possible to detect whether BitLocker is used by looking at the EFI var store (no telling difference in dumps with 'virt-fw-vars --output-json' before and after).
Stop auto-enrolling the new Microsoft UEFI 2023 certificate and produce a warning, telling users about the 'qm enroll-efi-keys' command and what steps to take when BitLocker is used to avoid triggering recovery. Thomas found [1], which suggests using 'manage-bde -protectors -disable' which will disable key protectors for the next boot and this was also successfully tested.
