fbf27730a3 conf: add support for specifying CPU "dies" parameter
Recently CPU hardware vendors have started to support a new structure
inside the CPU package topology known as a "die". Thus the hierarchy
is now:

  sockets > dies > cores > threads

This adds support for "dies" in the XML parser, with the value
defaulting to 1 if not specified for backwards compatibility.

For example a system with 64 logical CPUs might report

   <topology sockets="4" dies="2" cores="4" threads="2"/>

The driver is unmaintained, untested and severely broken for
quite some time now. Since nobody even reported any issue with it
let us drop it.

aca7ff5f70 libxl: add support for PVH
Since this is something between PV and HVM, it makes sense to put the
setting in place where domain type is specified.
To enable it, use <os><type machine="xenpvh">xenpvh</type></os>. It is
also included in capabilities.xml, for every supported HVM guest type - it
doesn't seems to be any other requirement (besides new enough Xen).

b1c81567c7 docs: switch to using HTML5 doctype declaration
The HTML5 doctype is simply

  <!DOCTYPE html>

no DTD is present because HTML5 is no longer defined as an
extension of SGML.

XSL has no way to natively output a doctype without a public
or system identifier, so we have to use an <xsl:text> hack
instead.

The <pre/> section is rendered as-is on the page. That is, if all
the lines are prefixed with 4 spaces the rendered page will also
have them. Problem is if we put a box around such <pre/> because
the content might not fix into it.

e9f4729a01 formatcaps: Rework and add stubs to document
At the moment we are missing even basic documentation on our
capabilities XML. Without demand on completeness, I'm
reorganizing the document structure and adding very basic
documentation to two major components of the capabilities XML.
These stubs are intended to be enhanced in the future.

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.

e352b16400 Export KVM Host Power Management capabilities
This patch exports KVM Host Power Management capabilities as XML so that
higher-level systems management software can make use of these features
available in the host.

The script "pm-is-supported" (from pm-utils package) is run to discover if
Suspend-to-RAM (S3) or Suspend-to-Disk (S4) is supported by the host.
If either of them are supported, then a new tag "<power_management>" is
introduced in the XML under the <host> tag.

However in case the query to check for power management features succeeded,
but the host does not support any such feature, then the XML will contain
an empty <power_management/> tag. In the event that the PM query itself
failed, the XML will not contain any "power_management" tag.

To use this, new APIs could be implemented in libvirt to exploit power
management features such as S3/S4.

94234fa2f8 Introduce per-device boot element
Currently, boot order can be specified per device class but there is no
way to specify exact disk/NIC device to boot from.

This patch adds <boot order='N'/> element which can be used inside
<disk/> and <interface/>. This is incompatible with the older os/boot
element. Since not all hypervisors support per-device boot
specification, new deviceboot flag is included in capabilities XML for
hypervisors which understand the new boot element. Presence of the flag
allows (but doesn't require) users to use the new style boot order
specification.

af53714f47 cpu: Add support for CPU vendor
By specifying <vendor> element in CPU requirements a guest can be
restricted to run only on CPUs by a given vendor. Host CPU vendor is
also specified in capabilities XML.

The vendor is checked when migrating a guest but it's not forced, i.e.,
guests configured without <vendor> element can be freely migrated.
