log: update docs for daemons to improve user understanding
Strongly recommend against use of the log_levels setting since it
creates overly verbose logs and has a serious performance impact.
Describe the log filter syntax better and mention use of shell
glob syntax. Also provide more realistic example of good settings
to use. The libvirtd example is biased towards QEMU, but when the
drivers split off each daemon can get its own more appropriate
example.

Rather than specialcasing handling of the '*' character, use fnmatch()
to get normal shell wildcard syntax, as described in 'man glob(7)'.
To get an indication of the performance impact of using globs instead
of plain string matches, a test program was written. The list of all
260 log categories was extracted from the source. Then a typical log
filters setup was picked by creating an array of the strings "qemu",
"security", "util", "cgroup", "event", "object". Every filter string
was matched against every log category. Timing information showed that
using strstr() this took 8 microseconds, while fnmatch() took 114
microseconds.
IOW, fnmatch is 14 times slower than our existing strstr check. These
numbers show a worst case scenario that will never be hit, because it
is rare that every log category would have data output. The log category
matches are cached, so each category is only checked once no matter how
many log statements are emitted. IOW despite being slower, this will
be lost in the noise and have no consequence on real world logging
performance.

conf: Clean up object referencing for Add and Remove
When adding a new object to the domain object list, there should
have been 2 virObjectRef calls made one for each list into which
the object was placed to match the 2 virObjectUnref calls that
would occur during Remove as part of virHashRemoveEntry when
virObjectFreeHashData is called when the element is removed from
the hash table as set up in virDomainObjListNew.
Some drivers (libxl, lxc, qemu, and vz) handled this inconsistency
by calling virObjectRef upon successful return from virDomainObjListAdd
in order to use virDomainObjEndAPI when done with the returned @vm.
While others (bhyve, openvz, test, and vmware) handled this via only
calling virObjectUnlock upon successful return from virDomainObjListAdd.
This patch will "unify" the approach to use virDomainObjEndAPI
for any @vm successfully returned from virDomainObjListAdd.
Because list removal is so tightly coupled with list addition,
this patch fixes the list removal algorithm to return the object
as entered - "locked and reffed". This way, the callers can then
decide how to uniformly handle add/remove success and failure.
This removes the onus on the caller to "specially handle" the
@vm during removal processing.
The Add/Remove logic allows for some logic simplification such
as in libxl where we can Remove the @vm directly rather than
needing to set a @remove_dom boolean and removing after the
libxlDomainObjEndJob completes as the @vm is locked/reffed.
