I've seen examples in the wild of the cluster attribute having
non-zero value on x86_64.
This is obviously quite confusing, but it's the information that
Linux exposes to userspace and we don't really have a way to tell
apart a valid die/cluster ID from a dummy one.
What ultimately matters is that the underlying assumptions about
topology are respected, which they are: in the x86_64 cases that
I have analyzed, for example, each "cluster" contained exactly
one core, so any program that would use this information to
influence guest topology decisions would be unaffected by the
additional level showing up in the hierarchy.
In an attempt to reduce confusion, remove any reference to any
specific value for the attributes having any special meaning
attached to it.
In fact, since there are plans to make it possible to create
guests with multiple CPU clusters on x86_64, rework the note
into a more generic warning cautioning users that an attribute
showing up here does not imply that the same attribute can be
used when defining a guest CPU topology.

This patch makes it possible to manually specify which VFIO variant
driver to use for PCI hostdev device assignment, so that, e.g. you
could force use of a VFIO "variant" driver, with e.g.
<driver model='mlx5_vfio_pci'/>
or alternately to force use of the generic vfio-pci driver with
<driver model='vfio-pci'/>
when libvirt would have normally (after applying a subsequent patch)
found a "better match" for a device in the active kernel's
modules.alias file. (The main potential use of this manual override
would probably be to work around a bug in a new VFIO variant driver by
temporarily not using that driver).

The long-deprecated use of <driver name='vfio|xen|kvm'/> in domain xml
for <hostdev> devices was only ever necessary during the period when
libvirt (and the Linux kernel) supported both VFIO and "legacy KVM"
styles of hostdev device assignment for QEMU. This became pointless
many years ago when legacy KVM device assignment was removed from the
kernel, and support for that style of device assignment was completely
disabled in the libvirt source in 2019 (commit
v5.6.0-316-g2e7225ea8c).
Nevertheless, there were instances of <driver name='vfio'/> in the
unit test data that were then (unnecessarily) propagated to several
more tests over the years. This patch cleans out those unnecessary
explicit settings of driver name='vfio' in all QEMU unit test data,
proving that the attribute is no longer (externally) needed. (A later
patch which adds a 2nd attribute to the <driver> element will include
a test case that explicitly exercises the driver name attribute).

QEMU gained support for PipeWire audio backend (see QEMU commit
of v8.0.0-403-gc2d3d1c294). Its configuration knobs are basically
the same as pulseaudio's, except for PA's server name. Therefore,
a lot of code is copied over from pulseadio and fixed by
s/Pulse/Pipewire/ or s/pulseaudio/pipewire/.
There's one ley difference to PA though: pipewire daemon is
usually on per user basis (just like our qemu:///session).
Therefore, introduce this 'runtimeDir' attribute, which allows
specifying path to pipewire daemon socket (useful for
qemu:///system for instance).

Currently, passing -Dtests=disabled only disables a subset of
tests: those that are written in C and thus require compilation.
Other tests, such as the syntax-check ones and those that are
implemented as scripts, are always enabled.
There's a potentially dangerous consequence of this behavior:
when tests are disabled, 'meson test' will succeed as if they
had been enabled. No indication of this will be shown, so the
user will likely make the reasonable assumption that everything
is fine when in fact the significantly reduced coverage might
be hiding failures.
To solve this issues, disable *all* tests when asked to do so,
and inject an intentionally failing test to ensure that 'meson
test' doesn't succeed.
Best viewed with 'git show -w'.
