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 IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,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.

As advertised in previous commit, there are three APIs that might
run for quite some time (because they read/write data from/to a
volume) and these three are: downloadVol, uploadVol, wipeVol.
Release pool object lock and reacquire it later to allow more
concurrency.

The virSecretGetSecretString() helper looks up a secret for given
pool and returns its value in @secret_value and its length in
@secret_value_size. However, the trailing '\0' is not included in
either of the variables. This is because usually the value of the
secret is passed to some encoder (usually base64 encoder) where
the trailing zero must not be accounted for.
However, in two places we actually want the string as we don't
process it any further.

the same. Add function to avoid code duplication.

Change the SetContext function to be able to take the session type in
argument.
Took the function findPoolSources of iscsi backend and wired it to my
function since the formatting is essentially the same.

We need here libiscsi for the storgae pool backend.
For the iscsi-direct storage pool, only checkPool and refreshPool should
be necessary for basic support.
The pool is state-less and just need the informations within the volume
to work.
