The name convention of device mapper disk is different, and 'parted'
can't be used to delete a device mapper disk partition. e.g.

Error: Expecting a partition number.
This patch introduces 'dmsetup' to fix it.
Changes:
- New function "virIsDevMapperDevice" in "src/utils/utils.c"
- remove "is_dm_device" in "src/storage/parthelper.c", use
"virIsDevMapperDevice" instead.
- Requires "device-mapper" for 'with-storage-disk" in "libvirt.spec.in"
- Check "dmsetup" in 'configure.ac' for "with-storage-disk"
- Changes on "src/Makefile.am" to link against libdevmapper
- New entry for "virIsDevMapperDevice" in "src/libvirt_private.syms"
Changes from v1 to v3:
- s/virIsDeviceMapperDevice/virIsDevMapperDevice/g
- replace "virRun" with "virCommand"
- sort the list of util functions in "libvirt_private.syms"
- ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL(1) for virIsDevMapperDevice declaration.

virFileResolveLink was returning a positive value on error,
thus confusing callers that assumed failure was < 0. The
confusion is further evidenced by callers that would have
ended up calling virReportSystemError with a negative value
instead of a valid errno.
Fixes Red Hat BZ #591363.
* src/util/util.c (virFileResolveLink): Live up to documentation.
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c
(qemuSecurityDACRestoreSecurityFileLabel): Adjust callers.
* src/security/security_selinux.c
(SELinuxRestoreSecurityFileLabel): Likewise.
* src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c
(virStorageBackendDiskDeleteVol): Likewise.
The virConnectPtr is no longer required for error reporting since
that is recorded in a thread local. Remove use of virConnectPtr
from all APIs in storage_conf.{h,c} and storage_encryption_conf.{h,c}
and update all callers to match
In order to avoid problems trying to chown files that were created by
root on a root-squashing nfs server, fork a new process that setuid's
to the desired uid before creating the file. (It's only done this way
if the pool containing the new volume is of type 'netfs', otherwise
the old method of creating the file followed by chown() is used.)
This changes the semantics of the "create_func" slightly - previously
it was assumed that this function just created the file, then the
caller would chown it to the desired uid. Now, create_func does both
operations.
There are multiple functions that can take on the role of create_func:
createFileDir - previously called mkdir(), now calls virDirCreate().
virStorageBackendCreateRaw - previously called open(),
now calls virFileCreate().
virStorageBackendCreateQemuImg - use virRunWithHook() to setuid/gid.
virStorageBackendCreateQcowCreate - same.
virStorageBackendCreateBlockFrom - preserve old behavior (but attempt
chown when necessary even if not root)
* src/storage/storage_backend.[ch] src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c
src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c
src/storage/storage_driver.c: change the create_func implementations,
also propagate the pool information to be able to detect NETFS ones.
