Ensure that all APIs which list interface objects filter
them against the access control system.
This makes the APIs for listing names and counting devices
slightly less efficient, since we can't use the direct
netcf APIs for these tasks. Instead we have to ask netcf
for the full list of objects & iterate over the list
filtering them out.

The udev based interface backend did not allow querying data over a
read-only connection which is different than how the netcf backend
operates. This brings the behavior inline with the default, netcf
backend.
virConnectListAllInterfaces should support to list all of
interfaces when the value of flags is 0. The behaviour is
consistent with other virConnectListAll* APIs
Some methods in the udev interface driver used 'cleanup' as the
label for separate error codepaths. Change these to use 'error'
as required by coding standards

The udevFreeIfaceDef function in the udev interface driver
just duplicates code from virInterfaceDefFree. Delete it
and call the standard API instead.
Fix the udevGetIfaceDefVlan method so that it doesn't
store pointers to the middle of a malloc'd memory
area.

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
Ensure that all drivers implementing public APIs use a
naming convention for their implementation that matches
the public API name.
eg for the public API virDomainCreate make sure QEMU
uses qemuDomainCreate and not qemuDomainStart

It will simplify later work if the sub-drivers have dedicated
APIs / field names. ie virNetworkDriver should have
virDrvNetworkOpen and virDrvNetworkClose methods

Ensure that the driver struct field names match the public
API names. For an API virXXXX we must have a driver struct
field xXXXX. ie strip the leading 'vir' and lowercase any
leading uppercase letters.

The bridge device was showing the vnet devices created for the domains
as connected to the bridge. libvirt should only show host devices when
trying to get the interface definition rather than the domain devices as
well.
Refactored the interface device type identification to make it more
clear about the operations. Add support for udev devtype to detect
VLANs on Linux 3.7 and newer. Move VLAN detection based on device
name to fallback case.
Mechanical move to break up udevIfaceGetIfaceDef() into different
helpers for each of the interface types to hopefully make the code
easier to follow. This moves the vlan code to
udevIfaceGetIfaceDefVlan().
Based on feedback from Laine Stump, improve a number of the error
handling cases to report the issue to the user instead of not generating
data or giving vague errors. Added the bridge device name to every error
message as well to make it clear which bridge failed.
Mechanical move to break up udevIfaceGetIfaceDef() into different
helpers for each of the interface types to hopefully make the code
easier to follow. This moves the bridge code to
udevIfaceGetIfaceDefBridge().
Added support for retrieving the XML defining a specific interface via
the udev based backend to virInterface. Implement the following APIs
for the udev based backend:
* virInterfaceGetXMLDesc()
Note: Does not support bond devices.
Given Daniel's announcement[1], code targetting the next release will
be in 1.0.0, not 0.10.3. Changed mechanically with:
for f in $(git grep -l '0\(.\)10\13\b') ; do
sed -i -e 's/0\(.\)10\13/1\10\10/g' $f
done

* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Use 1.0.0 for next release.
* src/interface/interface_backend_udev.c: Likewise.
Add support to check if a specific interface is active by supporting the
following API function in the udev based virInterface backend:
* virConnectInterfaceIsActive()
Add a read-only udev based backend for virInterface. Useful for distros
that do not have netcf support yet. Multiple libvirt based utilities use
a HAL based fallback when virInterface is not available which is less
than ideal. This implements:
* virConnectNumOfInterfaces()
* virConnectListInterfaces()
* virConnectNumOfDefinedInterfaces()
* virConnectListDefinedInterfaces()
* virConnectListAllInterfaces()
* virConnectInterfaceLookupByName()
* virConnectInterfaceLookupByMACString()
