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.

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.

Change done by commit f309db1f4d wrongly
assumes that qemu can start with a combination of NUMA nodes specified
with the "memdev" option and the appropriate backends, and the legacy
way by specifying only "mem" as a size argument. QEMU rejects such
commandline though:
$ /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -S -M pc -m 1024 -smp 2 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0,mem=256 \
-object memory-backend-ram,id=ram-node1,size=12345 \
-numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=1,memdev=ram-node1
qemu-system-x86_64: -numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=1,memdev=ram-node1: qemu: memdev option must be specified for either all or no nodes
To fix this issue we need to check if any of the nodes requires the new
definition with the backend and if so, then all other nodes have to use
it too.

QEMU's command line visitor as well as the JSON interface take bytes by
default for memory object sizes. Convert mebibytes to bytes so that we
can later refactor the existing code for hotplug purposes.

In qemu there are two interesting arguments:
1) -numa to create a guest NUMA node
2) -object memory-backend-{ram,file} to tell qemu which memory
region on which host's NUMA node it should allocate the guest
memory from.
Combining these two together we can instruct qemu to create a
guest NUMA node that is tied to a host NUMA node. And it works
just fine. However, depending on machine type used, there might
be some issued during migration when OVMF is enabled (see QEMU
BZ). While this truly is a QEMU bug, we can help avoiding it. The
problem lies within the memory backend objects somewhere. Having
said that, fix on our side consists on putting those objects on
the command line if and only if needed. For instance, while
previously we would construct this (in all ways correct) command
line:
-object memory-backend-ram,size=256M,id=ram-node0 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0,memdev=ram-node0
now we create just:
-numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0,mem=256
because the backend object is obviously not tied to any specific
host NUMA node.

Currently, we only bind the whole QEMU domain to memory nodes
specified in nodemask altogether. That, however, doesn't make much
sense when one wants to control from where the memory for particular
guest nodes should be allocated. QEMU allows us to do that by
specifying 'host-nodes' parameter for the 'memory-backend-ram' object,
so let's use that.
