The XML format used for QEMU capabilities is not required to be
stable across releases, as we invalidate the cache whenever the
libvirt binary changes.
We none the less always try to parse te entire XML file before
we do any validity checks. Thus if we change the format of any
part of the data, or change permitted values for enums, then
libvirtd logs will be spammed with errors.
These are not in fact errors, but an expected scenario.
This change makes the loading code validate the cache timestamp
against the libvirtd timestamp immediately. If they don't match
then we stop loading the rest of the XML file.

Require that all headers are guarded by a symbol named
LIBVIRT_$FILENAME
where $FILENAME is the uppercased filename, with all characters
outside a-z changed into '_'.
Note we do not use a leading __ because that is technically a
namespace reserved for the toolchain.

The new virFileCache will nicely handle the caching logic for any data
that we would like to cache. For each type of data we will just need
to implement few handlers that will take care of creating, validating,
loading and saving the cached data.
The cached data must be an instance of virObject.
Currently we cache QEMU capabilities which will start using
virFileCache.
