QEMU has -fw_cfg which allows users to tweak how firmware
configures itself and/or provide new configuration blobs.
Introduce new <sysinfo/> type "fwcfg" that will hold these
new blobs.
It's possible to either specify new value as a string or
provide a filename which contents then serve as the value.

After the split of enum functions into virenum.h,
this function does not contain anything worth including

As pointed out by Ján Tomko, "no_memory seems suspicious in the times of
abort()".
As libvirt decided to take the path to not report OOM and simply abort
when it happens, let's get rid of the no_memory labels and simplify the
code around them.
Mind that virfirewall.c was not touched and still contains no_memory
labels. The reason those are left behind, at least for now, is because
the conversion seems to be slightly more complicated than the rest, as
some other places are relying on firewall->err being set to ENOMEM.

virutil.(c|h) is a very gross collection of random code. Remove the enum
handlers from there so we can limit the scope where virtutil.h is used.

Missing semicolon at the end of macros can confuse some analyzers
(like cppcheck <filename>), and we have a mix of semicolon and
non-semicolon usage through the code. Let's standardize on using
a semicolon for VIR_ENUM_DECL calls.
Drop the semicolon from the final statement of the macro, so
the compiler will require callers to add a semicolon.

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.

In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

The OEM strings table in SMBIOS allows the vendor to pass arbitrary
strings into the guest OS. This can be used as a way to pass data to an
application like cloud-init, or potentially as an alternative to the
kernel command line for OS installers where you can't modify the install
ISO image to change the kernel args.
As an example, consider if cloud-init and anaconda supported OEM strings
you could use something like
<oemStrings>
<entry>cloud-init:ds=nocloud-net;s=http://10.10.0.1:8000/</entry>
<entry>anaconda:method=http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/25/x86_64/os</entry>
</oemStrings>
use of a application specific prefix as illustrated above is
recommended, but not mandated, so that an app can reliably identify
which of the many OEM strings are targetted at it.

In "src/util/" there are many enumeration (enum) declarations.
Sometimes, it's better using a typedef for variable types,
function types and other usages. Other enumeration will be
changed to typedef's in the future.
