03d777f345 Introduce virStrncpy.
Add the virStrncpy function, which takes a dst string, source string,
the number of bytes to copy and the number of bytes available in the
dest string.  If the source string is too large to fit into the
destination string, including the \0 byte, then no data is copied and
the function returns NULL.  Otherwise, this function copies n bytes
from source into dst, including the \0, and returns a pointer to the
dst string.  This function is intended to replace all unsafe uses
of strncpy in the code base, since strncpy does *not* guarantee that
the buffer terminates with a \0.

899ae0d2b5 Fix misc Win32 compile warnings
GCC >= 4.4 assumes the 'printf' attribute refers to the native
runtime libraries format specifiers. Thanks to gnulib, libvirt
has GNU format specifiers everywhere.  This means we need to
use 'gnu_printf' with GCC >= 4.4 to get correct compiler
checking of printf format specifiers.

* HACKING: Document new rules for ATTRIBUTE_FMT_PRINTF
* autobuild.sh, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Disable OpenNebula
  driver on mingw32 builds
* qemud/dispatch.h, qemud/qemu.h, src/buf.h src/internal.h,
  src/logging.h, src/security.h, src/sexpr.h, src/util.h,
  src/virterror_internal.h, src/xend_internal.c: Change
  over to ATTRIBUTE_FMT_PRINTF.
* src/virsh.c: Disable 'cd' and 'pwd' commands on Win32
  since they don't compile
* src/threads-win32.c: Add missing return value check
