objects later, turn virSecurityManager into a virObjectLockable

There are many aspects of the guest XML which result in the
SELinux driver applying file labelling. With the increasing
configuration options it is desirable to test this behaviour.
It is not possible to assume that the test suite has the
ability to set SELinux labels. Most filesystems though will
support extended attributes. Thus for the purpose of testing,
it is possible to extend the existing LD_PRELOAD hack to
override setfilecon() and getfilecon() to simply use the
'user.libvirt.selinux' attribute for the sake of testing.

I've noticed a number of people sending patches with file
renames not compressed, so we might as well document how to
set this up. (Git won't do it by default, for back-compat
reasons)
* docs/hacking.html.in: Add git config tip.
* HACKING: Regenerate.
This documents the following whitespace rules
if(foo) // Bad
if (foo) // Good
int foo (int wizz) // Bad
int foo(int wizz) // Good
bar = foo (wizz); // Bad
bar = foo(wizz); // Good
typedef int (*foo) (int wizz); // Bad
typedef int (*foo)(int wizz); // Good
int foo( int wizz ); // Bad
int foo(int wizz); // Good
There is a syntax-check rule extension to validate all these rules.
Checking for 'function (...args...)' is quite difficult since it
needs to ignore valid usage with keywords like 'if (...test...)'
and while/for/switch. It must also ignore source comments and
quoted strings.
It is not possible todo this with a simple regex in the normal
syntax-check style. So a short Perl script is created instead
to analyse the source. In practice this works well enough. The
only thing it can't cope with is multi-line quoted strings of
the form
"start of string\
more lines\
more line\
the end"
but this can and should be written as
"start of string"
"more lines"
"more line"
"the end"
with this simple change, the bracket checking script does not
have any false positives across libvirt source, provided it
is only run against .c files. It is not practical to run it
against .h files, since those use whitespace extensively to
get alignment (though this is somewhat inconsistent and could
arguably be fixed).
The only limitation is that it cannot detect a violation where
the first arg starts with a '*', eg
foo(*wizz);
since this generates too many false positives on function
typedefs which can't be supressed efficiently.

An email came to libvir-list wondering why the git send-email command
was missing in spite of having git installed; this is due to the
send-email command being in a sub-package of the main git package.
While touching the hacking file, I thought it would be useful to 1)
indicate the location of the source (docs/hacking.html.in) in the
message at the top of HACKING, and also to make the note about running
"make check" and "make syntax-check" a bit more stern.
We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and
the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version.
global rename performed with:
$ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \
| xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g'
then revert the changes in ChangeLog-old.
* docs/hacking.html.in (Curly braces): Tighten recommendations to
disallow if (cond) one-line; else { block; }.
* HACKING: Regenerate.
Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange.
Similarly to deprecating close(), I am now deprecating fclose() and
introduce VIR_FORCE_FCLOSE() and VIR_FCLOSE(). Also, fdopen() is replaced with
VIR_FDOPEN().
Most of the files are opened in read-only mode, so usage of
VIR_FORCE_CLOSE() seemed appropriate. Others that are opened in write
mode already had the fclose()< 0 check and I converted those to
VIR_FCLOSE()< 0.
I did not find occurrences of possible double-closed files on the way.
Since bugs due to double-closed file descriptors are difficult to track down in a multi-threaded system, I am introducing the VIR_CLOSE(fd) macro to help avoid mistakes here.
There are lots of places where close() is being used. In this patch I am only cleaning up usage of close() in src/conf where the problems were.
I also dare to declare close() as being deprecated in libvirt code base (HACKING).
* docs/hacking.html.in: Use the "curly braces" section from coreutils'
HACKING, adapting for libvirt's different formatting style.
* HACKING: Sync from the above, still mostly manually.
Replace free(virBufferContentAndReset()) with virBufferFreeAndReset().
Update documentation and replace all remaining calls to free() with
calls to VIR_FREE(). Also add missing calls to virBufferFreeAndReset()
and virReportOOMError() in OOM error cases.
Provide a simple interface for other tests to lookup the testDebug variable.
Also remove a redundant error message in interface tests.
If anyone feels inclined to change this env variable to match the existing
LIBVIRT_* format, it should now be easier to do so.
Add the virStrncpy function, which takes a dst string, source string,
the number of bytes to copy and the number of bytes available in the
dest string. If the source string is too large to fit into the
destination string, including the \0 byte, then no data is copied and
the function returns NULL. Otherwise, this function copies n bytes
from source into dst, including the \0, and returns a pointer to the
dst string. This function is intended to replace all unsafe uses
of strncpy in the code base, since strncpy does *not* guarantee that
the buffer terminates with a \0.

GCC >= 4.4 assumes the 'printf' attribute refers to the native
runtime libraries format specifiers. Thanks to gnulib, libvirt
has GNU format specifiers everywhere. This means we need to
use 'gnu_printf' with GCC >= 4.4 to get correct compiler
checking of printf format specifiers.
