462a69621e build: use common .in replacement mechanism
We had several different styles of .in conversion in our Makefiles:
ALLCAPS, @ALLCAPS@, @lower@, ::lower::
Canonicalize on one form, to make it easier to copy and paste
between .in files.

Also, we were using some non-portable sed constructs: \@ is an
undefined escape sequence (it happens to be @ itself in GNU sed,
but POSIX allows it to mean something else), as well as risky
behavior (failure to consistently quote things means a space
in $(sysconfdir) could throw things off; also, Autoconf recommends
using | rather than , or ! in the s||| operator, because | has to
be quoted in shell and is therefore less likely to appear in file
names than , or !).

Fix all of these uses to follow the same syntax.

* daemon/libvirtd.8.in: Switch to @var@.
* tools/virt-xml-validate.in: Likewise.
* tools/virt-pki-validate.in: Likewise.
* src/locking/virtlockd.init.in: Likewise.
* daemon/Makefile.am: Prefer | over ! in sed.
(libvirtd.8): Prefer consistent substitution.
(libvirtd.init, libvirtd.service): Avoid non-portable sed.
* tools/Makefile.am (libvirt-guests.sh, libvirt-guests.init)
(libvirt-guests.service): Likewise.
(virt-xml-validate, virt-pki-validate, virt-sanlock-cleanup):
Prefer consistent capitalization.
* src/Makefile.am (virtlockd.init, virtlockd.service)
(virtlockd.socket): Prefer consistent substitution.

97e4f21782 Support automatic creation of leases for disks in sanlock
The current sanlock plugin requires a central management
application to manually add <lease> elements to each guest,
to protect resources that are assigned to it (eg writable
disks). This makes the sanlock plugin useless for usage
in more ad hoc deployment environments where there is no
central authority to associate disks with leases.

This patch adds a mode where the sanlock plugin will
automatically create leases for each assigned read-write
disk, using a md5 checksum of the fully qualified disk
path. This can work pretty well if guests are using
stable disk paths for block devices eg /dev/disk/by-path/XXXX
symlinks, or if all hosts have NFS volumes mounted in
a consistent pattern.

The plugin will create one lockspace for managing disks
with filename /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/__LIBVIRT__DISKS__.
For each VM disks, there will be another file to hold
a lease /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/5903e5d25e087e60a20fe4566fab41fd
Each VM disk lease is usually 1 MB in size. The script
virt-sanlock-cleanup should be run periodically to remove
unused lease files from the lockspace directory.

To make use of this capability the admin will need to do
several tasks:

 - Mount an NFS volume (or other shared filesystem)
   on /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock
 - Configure 'host_id' in /etc/libvirt/qemu-sanlock.conf
   with a unique value for each host with the same NFS
   mount
 - Toggle the 'auto_disk_leases' parameter in qemu-sanlock.conf

Technically the first step can be skipped, in which case
sanlock will only protect against 2 vms on the same host
using the same disk (or the same VM being started twice
due to error by libvirt).

* src/locking/libvirt_sanlock.aug,
  src/locking/sanlock.conf,
  src/locking/test_libvirt_sanlock.aug: Add config params
  for configuring auto lease setup
* libvirt.spec.in: Add virt-sanlock-cleanup program, man
  page
* tools/virt-sanlock-cleanup.in: Script to purge unused
  disk resource lease files
