In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

Since it is an abbreviation, USB should always be fully
capitalized or full lower case, never Usb.

Any source file which calls the logging APIs now needs
to have a VIR_LOG_INIT("source.name") declaration at
the start of the file. This provides a static variable
of the virLogSource type.

Change any variable names with Usb, Pci or Scsi to use
USB, PCI and SCSI since they are abbreviations.

The activeUsbHostdevs item in LXCDriver are lockable, but the lock has
to be called explicitly. Call the virObject(Un)Lock() in order to
achieve mutual exclusion once lxcDriverLock is removed.
This allows a container-type domain to have exclusive access to one of
the host's NICs.
Wire <hostdev caps=net> with the lxc_controller - when moving the newly
created veth devices into a new namespace, also look for any hostdev
devices that should be moved. Note: once the container domain has been
destroyed, there is no code that moves the interfaces back to the
original namespace. This does happen, though, probably due to default
cleanup on namespace destruction.

To allow modifications to the lists to be synchronized, convert
virPCIDeviceList and virUSBDeviceList into virObjectLockable
classes. The locking, however, will not be self-contained. The
users of these classes will have to call virObjectLock/Unlock
in the critical regions.

This adds support for host device passthrough with the
LXC driver. Since there is only a single kernel image,
it doesn't make sense to pass through PCI devices, but
USB devices are fine. For the latter we merely need to
make the /dev/bus/usb/NNN/MMM character device exist
in the container's /dev
