storage: Introduce parentaddr into virStoragePoolSourceAdapter
Between reboots and kernel reloads, the SCSI host number used for SCSI
storage pools may change requiring modification to the storage pool XML
in order to use a specific SCSI host adapter.
This patch introduces the "parentaddr" element and "unique_id" attribute
for the SCSI host adapter in order to uniquely identify the adapter
between reboots and kernel reloads. For now the goal is to only parse
and format the XML. Both will be required to be provided in order to
uniquely identify the desired SCSI host.
where "parentaddr" is the parent device of the SCSI host using the PCI
address on which the device resides and the value from the unique_id file
for the device. Both the PCI address and unique_id values will be used
to traverse the /sys/class/scsi_host/ directories looking at each link
to match the PCI address reformatted to the directory link format where
"domain:bus:slot:function" is found. Then for each matching directory
the unique_id file for the scsi_host will be used to match the unique_id
value in the xml.
For a PCI address listed above, this will be formatted to "0000:00:1f.2"
and the links in /sys/class/scsi_host will be used to find the host#
to be used for the 'scsi_host' device. Each entry is a link to the
/sys/bus/pci/devices directories, e.g.:
% ls -al /sys/class/scsi_host/host2
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 0 Jun 1 00:22 /sys/class/scsi_host/host2 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/ata3/host2/scsi_host/host2
% cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host2/unique_id

The "parentaddr" and "name" attributes are mutually exclusive to identify
the SCSI host number. Use of the "parentaddr" element will be the preferred
mechanism.
This patch only supports to parse and format the XMLs. Later patches will
add code to find out the scsi host number.

Decisions whether qemu driver and libvirt-daemon-{qemu,kvm} packages
should be built on various OS/arch combinations were scattered around

be built.
Add a new boolean 'sparse'. This will be used by the logical backend
storage driver to determine whether the target volume is sparse or not
(also known by a snapshot or thin logical volume). Although setting sparse
to true at creation could be seen as duplicitous to setting during
virStorageBackendLogicalMakeVol() in case there are ever other code paths
between Create and FindLVs that need to know about the volume be sparse.
Use the 'sparse' in a new virStorageBackendLogicalVolWipe() to decide whether
to attempt to wipe the logical volume or not. For now, I have found no
means to wipe the volume without writing to it. Writing to the sparse
volume causes it to be filled. A sparse logical volume is not completely
writeable as there exists metadata which if overwritten will cause the
sparse lv to go INACTIVE which means pool-refresh will not find it.
Access to whatever lvm uses to manage data blocks is not provided by
any API I could find.

virsh: Document bandwidth maximum more clearly
Commit id '0e2d7305' modified the code to allow a negative value to be
supplied for the bandwidth argument of the various block virsh commands
and the migrate-setspeed; however, it failed to update the man page to
describe the "feature" whereby a very large value could be interpreted
by the hypervisor to mean maximum value allowed. Although initially
designed to handle a -1 value, the reality is just about any negative
value could be provided and essentially perform the same feature.
Commit id 'c6212539' explicitly allowed a negative value to be used for
offset and length as a shorthand for the largest value after commit id
'f18c02ec' modified virStrToLong_ui() to essentially disallow a negative
value.
However, allowing a negative value for offset ONLY worked if the negative
value was -1 since the eventual lseek() does allow a -1 to mean the end
of the file. Providing other negative values resulted in errors such as:
$ virsh vol-download --pool default qcow3-vol2 /home/vm-images/raw \
--offset -2 --length -1000
error: cannot download from volume qcow3-vol2
error: Unable to seek /home/vm-images/qcow3-vol2 to 18446744073709551614: Invalid argument
$
Thus, it seems unreasonable to expect or allow a negative value for offset
since the only benefit is to lseek() to the end of the file and then only
take advantage of how the OS would handle such a seek. For the purposes of
upload or download of volume data, that seems to be a no-op. Therefore,
disallow a negative value for offset.
Additionally, modify the man page for vol-upload and vol-download to provide
more details regarding the valid values for both offset and length.

doc: Be more specific about semantics of _REUSE_EXT flag
Snapshots and block-copy have a flag that forces qemu to re-use existing
file. Our docs weren't exactly clear on what the existing file should
contain for this to actually work.
Re-word the docs a bit to state that the file needs to be pre-created in
the desired format and the backing chain metadata needs to be set prior
to handing it over to qemu.
conf: Fix possible NULL dereference in virStorageVolTargetDefFormat
Commit dae1568c6c6455091e8cd9bc2e90a22af3d3880c converted the perms
member of the virStorageVolTarget struct into a pointer to make it
optional. But virStorageVolTargetDefFormat did not check perms for
NULL before dereferencing it.
