ebc241fcff docs: Update language bindings spotlight
We should highlight the language bindings that are actively
maintained, keep up with the core library's development pace,
have good API coverage and are relevant to people looking to
integrate libvirt into their projects today: based on these
criteria, it makes sense to highlight the Go binding instead
of the Java one.

9fd2e78b96 docs: xsl: Unify stylability of main container element
page.xsl was adding '<div id="content">' wrapper for the content picked
up from the <body> element from the original input file. Optionally
class="$DOCNAME" was added for some documents taken from <body>.

Since docs generated from RST by docutils have a '<div class='document'
id='$DOCNAME>' we actually don't need an extra wrapper for them.

Additionally if we standardize on one of them we can use the same styles
for both. I've picked the latter because it makes more sense to use the
document name as 'id'.

This patch:
1) Modifies the XSL trasformation to add the wrapper only if it's not
   present.

2) Modifies the XSL transformation to use 'id' for document name and
   class='document' for the wrapper element.

3) Changes docs.html/index.html/hvsupport.html to use 'id' instead of
   'class' for document name.

4) Modifies the main stylesheet to keep styling the elements properly

252958ee16 backup: Document new XML for backups
Prepare for new backup APIs by describing the XML that will represent
a backup.  The XML resembles snapshots and checkpoints in being able
to select actions for a set of disks, but has other differences.  It
can support both push model (the hypervisor does the backup directly
into the destination file) and pull model (the hypervisor exposes an
access port for a third party to grab what is necessary).  Add
testsuite coverage for some minimal uses of the XML.

The <disk> element within <domainbackup> tries to model the same
elements as a <disk> under <domain>, but sharing the RNG grammar
proved to be hairy. That is in part because while <domain> use
<source> to describe a host resource in use by the guest, a backup job
is using a host resource that is not visible to the guest: a push
backup action is instead describing a <target> (which ultimately could
be a remote network resource, but for simplicity the RNG just
validates a local file for now), and a pull backup action is instead
describing a temporary local file <scratch> (which probably should not
be a remote resource).  A future refactoring may thus introduce some
way to parameterize RNG to accept <disk type='FOO'>...</disk> so that
the name of the subelement can be <source> for domain, or <target> or
<scratch> as needed for backups. Future patches may improve this area
of code.

d85842cfd7 backup: Document new XML for checkpoints
Prepare for new checkpoint APIs by describing the XML that will
represent a checkpoint.  The checkpoint XML is modeled heavily after
virDomainSnapshotPtr. See the docs for more details.

Add testsuite coverage for some minimal uses of the XML (bare minimum,
the sample from html, and a full dumpxml, and some counter-examples
that should fail schema validation). Although use of the REDEFINE flag
will require the <domain> subelement to be present, it is easier for
most of the tests to provide counterpart output produced with the
NO_DOMAIN flag (particularly since synthesizing a valid <domain>
during testing is not trivial).

f2f9742d4d Fix multiple formatting problems in HTML docs
The rule generating the HTML docs passing the --html flag
to xsltproc. This makes it use the legacy HTML parser, which
either ignores or tries to fix all sorts of broken XML tags.
There's no reason why we should be writing broken XML in
the first place, so removing --html and adding the XHTML
doctype to all files forces us to create good XML.

This adds the XHTML doc type and fixes many, many XML tag
problems it exposes.

e5adda7e6b website: Point main page links to libvirt driver pages
The "libvirt supports:" section on the main page of libvirt.org
contains a list of hypervisors with links that point to the sites of
the underlying virt technologies.  The entry for KVM points to
http://www.linux-kvm.org/, for example.  People coming to libvirt.org
for the first time are likely to know about those sites, and they're
probably interested in how libvirt manages those technologies.  This
patch points those links to the libvirt driver pages instead.  It also
consolidates KVM and QEMU as there is only one libvirt driver page for
them.  Finally, it adds a line about networking support.

v2: incorporate Eric's feedback adding project links to driver pages.

50d8ad828d Update on the goal page
Some things to note in this patch:
   - we do extend libvirt scope beyond purely managing domains, there is
     already a number of blocks which are here as helpr functions to
     manage the resources on the host.
   - we are expanding in the direction of libvirt being sufficient to do
     most of the management on the Host (but within the limits of the need
     for virtualization, e.g. managing users on the host is out of scope)
   - we don't require anymore APIs to be supported by multiple
     hypervisors to get in, it's already the case in practice, but we
     should still make sure the semantic of those APIs are clear. We
     added quite a bit for QEmu, but for example I saw on IRC that VBox
     could emulate a network unplug/replug on a domain interface, and
     that would be a good addition even if a priori no other hypervisor
     supports it.
   - Make clear that all libvirt APIs are available remotely, which is
     key to use libvirt for building management tools.
   - link the goal page from the project main page

As for libvirt project directions, I think it just reflects the natural
evolution in the last couple of years. We are less hypervisor agnostic
and extending in the Host management. Clearly there is interest in
making sure libvirt is complete in term of features for the hypervisors
supported, especially the ones like KVM or LXC which don't really have
integrated management library.
