Per-domain directories were introduced in order to be able to
completely separate security labels for each domain (commit
f1f68ca334). However when the domain
name is long (let's say a ridiculous 110 characters), we cannot
connect to the monitor socket because on length of UNIX socket address
is limited. In order to get around this, let's shorten it in similar
fashion and in order to avoid conflicts, throw in an ID there as well.
Also save that into the status XML and load the old status XMLs
properly (to clean up after older domains). That way we can change it
in the future.
The shortening can be seen in qemuxml2argv tests, for example in the
hugepages-pages2 case.

Just recently, qemu forbade specifying format for sourceless
disks (qemu commit 39c4ae941ed992a3bb5). It kind of makes sense.
If there's no file to open, why specify its format. Anyway, I
have a domain like this:
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<readonly/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
and obviously I am unable to start it. Therefore, a fix on our
side is needed too.

As of QEMU 0.10.0 the -drive format= parameter was added,
so the QEMU driver can assume it is always available.

tests: handle backspace-newline pairs in test input files
all the test argv files were line wrapped so that the args
were less than 80 characters.
The way the line wrapping was done turns out to be quite
undesirable, because it often leaves multiple parameters
on the same line. If we later need to add or remove
individual parameters, then it leaves us having to redo
line wrapping.
This commit changes the line wrapping so that every
single "-param value" is one its own new line. If the
"value" is still too long, then we break on ',' or ':'
or ' ' as needed.
This means that when we come to add / remove parameters
from the test files line, the patch diffs will only
ever show a single line added/removed which will greatly
simplify review work.

We have previously effectively ignored all <controller type='ide'>
elements in a domain definition.
On the i440fx-based machinetypes there is an IDE controller that is
included in the chipset and can't be removed (which is the ide
controller with index='0'>), so it makes sense to ignore that one
controller. However, if an i440fx domain definition has a 2nd
controller, nothing catches this error (unless you also have a disk
attached to it, in which case qemu will complain that you're trying to
use the ide controller named "ide1", which doesn't exist), and if any
other type of domain has even a single controller defined, it will be
incorrectly ignored.
Ignoring a bogus controller definition isn't such a big problem, as
long as an error is logged when any disk is attached to that
non-existent controller. But in the case of q35-based machinetypes,
the hardcoded id ("alias" in libvirt terms) of its builtin SATA
controller is "ide", which happens to be the same id as the builtin
IDE controller on i440fx machinetypes. So libvirt creates a
commandline believing that it is connecting the disk to the builtin
(but actually nonexistent) IDE controller, qemu thinks that libvirt
wanted that disk connected to the builtin SATA controller, and
everybody is happy.
Until you try to connect a 2nd disk to the IDE controller. Then qemu
will complain that you're trying to set unit=1 on a controller that
requires unit=0 (SATA controllers are organized differently than IDE
controllers).
After this patch, if a domain has an IDE controller defined for a
machinetype that has no IDE controllers, libvirt will log an error
about the controller itself as it is building the qemu commandline
(rather than a (possible) error from qemu about disks attached to that
controller). This is done by adding IDE to the list of controller
types that are handled in the loop that creates controller command
strings in qemuBuildCommandline() (previously it would *always* skip
IDE controllers). Then qemuBuildControllerDevStr() is modified to log
an appropriate error in the case of IDE controllers.
In the future, if we add support for extra IDE controllers (piix3-ide
and/or piix4-ide) we can just add it into the IDE case in
qemuBuildControllerDevStr(). For now, nobody seems anxious to add
extra support for an aging and very slow controller, when there are so
many better options available.

Libvirtd would crash if a domain contained an empty cdrom drive of
type='volume' as the disk def->srcpool member would be dereferenced. Fix
it by checking if the source pool is present before dereferencing it.
Also alter tests to catch this issue in the future.
