qemu: Do not reattach PCI device used by other domain when shutdown
When failing on starting a domain, it tries to reattach all the PCI
devices defined in the domain conf, regardless of whether the devices
are still used by other domain. This will cause the devices to be deleted
from the list qemu_driver->activePciHostdevs, thus the devices will be
thought as usable even if it's not true. And following commands

2) # virsh start domain1
3) # virsh start domain2
4) # virsh nodedev-reattach $pci_device
You will see the device will be reattached to host successfully.
As pciDeviceReattach just check if the device is still used by
other domain via checking if the device is in list driver->activePciHostdevs,
however, the device is deleted from the list by step 2).
This patch is to prohibit the bug by:
1) Prohibit a domain starting or device attachment right at
preparation period (qemuPrepareHostdevPCIDevices) if the
device is in list driver->activePciHostdevs, which means
it's used by other domain.
2) Introduces a new field for struct _pciDevice, (const char *used_by),
it will be set as the domain name at preparation period,
(qemuPrepareHostdevPCIDevices). Thus we can prohibit deleting

other domain when stopping the domain process.

information is lost, which breaks re-defining the domain using that
data.
Explicitly return "tap2" for disks defined as "device/tap2".

xen: fix PyGrub boot device order
When PyGrub is used as the bootloader in Xen, it gets passed the first
bootable disk. Xend supports a "bootable"-flag for this, which isn't
explicitly supported by libvirt.
When converting libvirt-xml to xen-sxpr the "bootable"-flag gets
implicitly set by xen.xend.XenConfig.device_add() for the first disk
(marked as "Compat hack -- mark first disk bootable").
When converting back xen-sxpr to libvirt-xml, the disks are returned in
the internal order used by Xend ignoring the "bootable"-flag, which
loses the original order. When the domain is then re-defined, the order
of disks is changed, which breaks PyGrub, since a different disk gets
passed.
When converting xen-sxpr to libvirt-xml, use the "bootable"-flag to
determine the first disk.
This isn't perfect, since several disks can be marked as bootable using
the Xend-API, but that is not supported by libvirt. In all known cases
relevant to libvirt exactly one disk is marked as bootable.
