* the getMachineForSession is always true for 4.0+. This also means that
checkflag argument in openSessionForMachine no longer has any meaning
because it was or'ed with getMachineForSession (always true)
* remove supportScreenshot flag - vbox 4.0+ supports it
* remove detachDevicesExplicitly flag only relevant for < 4.0
VirtualBox 4.0+ uses IMedium and IHardDisk is no longer used, so
* remove typef IMedium IHardDisk
* merge UIHardDisk into UIMedium
* update all references accordingly
For stateless, client side drivers, it is never correct to
probe for secondary drivers. It is only ever appropriate to
use the secondary driver that is associated with the
hypervisor in question. As a result the ESX & HyperV drivers
have both been forced to do hacks where they register no-op
drivers for the ones they don't implement.
For stateful, server side drivers, we always just want to
use the same built-in shared driver. The exception is
virtualbox which is really a stateless driver and so wants
to use its own server side secondary drivers. To deal with
this virtualbox has to be built as 3 separate loadable
modules to allow registration to work in the right order.
This can all be simplified by introducing a new struct
recording the precise set of secondary drivers each
hypervisor driver wants
struct _virConnectDriver {
virHypervisorDriverPtr hypervisorDriver;
virInterfaceDriverPtr interfaceDriver;
virNetworkDriverPtr networkDriver;
virNodeDeviceDriverPtr nodeDeviceDriver;
virNWFilterDriverPtr nwfilterDriver;
virSecretDriverPtr secretDriver;
virStorageDriverPtr storageDriver;
};
Instead of registering the hypervisor driver, we now
just register a virConnectDriver instead. This allows
us to remove all probing of secondary drivers. Once we
have chosen the primary driver, we immediately know the
correct secondary drivers to use.

Coverity is complaining about overwriting value in 'rc' variable
without using the old value because it somehow doesn't recognize that
the value is used by MACRO. The 'rc' variable is there only for checking
return code so it's save to remove it and make coverity happy.

We use typedef IMedium IHardDisk to make IHardDisk hierachy from
IMedium (Actually it did on vbox 2.2 and 3.0's C++ API).
So when calling
VBOX_MEDIUM_FUNC_ARG*(IHardDisk, func, args)
we can directly replace it to
gVBoxAPI.UIMedium.func(IHardDisk, args)
When dealing with this two types, we get some rules from it's
hierachy relationship.
When using IHardDisk and IMedium as input, we can't transfer a
IMedium to IHardDisk. Like:
gVBoxAPI.UIHardDisk.func(IHardDisk *hardDisk, args)
Here, we can't put a *IMedium as a argument.
When using IHardDisk and IMedium as output, we can't transfer a
IHardDisk to IMedium. Like:
gVBoxAPI.UIMachine.GetMedium(IMedium **out)
Here, we can't put a **IHardDisk as a argument. If this case
do happen, we either change the API to GetHardDisk or write a
new one.
This patch rewrites the following functions
*vboxStorageOpen
*vboxStorageClose
*vboxConnectNumOfStoragePools
*vboxConnectListStoragePools
*vboxStoragePoolLookupByName
These functions do not call any vbox API, so I directly move it
from vbox_tmpl.c to vbox_storage.c
A small improvement is made on vboxConnectListStoragePools.
The if condition nnames == 1 is modified to nnames > 0. So if the
caller put more than one slot to get active storage pools, the new
function will return exactly one, while the old one would only
return 0.
