We need to query mdevctl for changes to device definitions since an

build: teach run script how to temporarily stop systemd units
When testing locally built daemons on a systemd host there can be quite
a few systemd units that need temporarily stopping, and ideally
restarting after the test is complete. This becomes a massive burden
when modular daemons are running and you want to test libvirtd, as a
huge number of units need stopping.
The run script can facilitate this usage by looking at what units are
running and automatically stopping any that are known to conflict with
the daemon that is about to be run. This is only done when running as
root, since non-root libvirtd does not (currently) use systemd.

lib: Fix calling of virNetworkUpdate() driver callback
The order in which virNetworkUpdate() accepts @section and
@command arguments is not the same as in which it passes them
onto networkUpdate() callback. Until recently, it did not really
matter, because calling the API on client side meant arguments
were encoded in reversed order (compared to the public API), but
then on the server it was fixed again - because the server
decoded RPC (still swapped), called public API (still swapped)
and in turn called the network driver callback (with reversing
the order - so magically fixing the order).
Long story short, if the public API is called even number of
times those swaps cancel each other out. The problem is when the
API is called an odd numbed of times - which happens with split
daemons and the right URI. There's one call in the client (e.g.
virsh net-update), the other in a hypervisor daemon (say
virtqemud) which ends up calling the API in the virnetworkd.
The fix is obvious - fix the order in which arguments are passed
to the callback.
But, to maintain compatibility with older, yet unfixed, daemons
new connection feature is introduced. The feature is detected
just before calling the callback and allows client to pass
arguments in correct order (talking to fixed daemon) or in
reversed order (talking to older daemon).
Unfortunately, older client talking to newer daemon can't be
fixed. Let's hope that it's less frequent scenario.
