cdd362e0e7 storage: escape ipv6 for ceph mon hosts to librados
Hosts for rbd are ceph monitor daemons. These have fixed IP addresses,
so they are often referenced by IP rather than hostname for
convenience, or to avoid relying on DNS. Using IPv4 addresses as the
host name works already, but IPv6 addresses require rbd-specific
escaping because the colon is used as an option separator in the
string passed to librados.

Escape these colons, and enclose the IPv6 address in square brackets
so it is distinguished from the port, which is currently mandatory.

6394cf9768 network: convert hook script to take a network port XML
When (un)plugging an interface into a network, the 'plugged'
and 'unplugged' operations are invoked in the hook script.

The data provided to the script contains the network XML, the
domain XML and the domain interface XML. When we strictly split the
drivers up this will no longer be possible and thus breakage is
unavoidable. The hook scripts are not considered to be covered by the
API guarantee so this is OK.

To avoid existing scripts taking the wrong action, the existing
operations are changed to 'port-created' and 'port-deleted'
instead. These will receive the network XML and the network port
XML.

18006c696d gitdm: Add gitdm configuration
This configuration can be used by gitdm to generate reports about
libvirt development.

The goal I was working with was being able to generate a report
for every single libvirt release and having zero "email address
as company" entries; picking different commit ranges might result
in some contributions not being accounted for.

I had to make some judgement calls when the situation was not
entirely clear-cut: when in doubt, and not finding any obvious
signs of the opposite being true, I mostly ended up dumping
people in the "unaffiliated contributions" bin. If I got it
wrong, and companies want to get recognition for their sponsored
contributions to libvirt, they can send patches.

they want the HTML documentation to be installed with an
extreme level of precision through the --with-html-dir and
--with-html-subdir configure options.

Most of the time, of course, the user will stick with the
default, that is $(datadir)/doc/$(PACKAGE)-$(VERSION)/html.

So close to $(docdir)! Including the version number in
the path, specifically, seems entirely unnecessary since
different releases of libvirt are not going to be able to
coexist on the same system anyway.

a007fcab3b snapshot: Don't expose testsuite-only state in snapshot XML
None of the existing drivers actually use the 0-valued 'nostate'
snapshot state; rather, it was a fluke of implementation. In fact,
some drivers, like qemu, actively reject 'nostate' as invalid during a
snapshot redefine. Normally, a driver computes the state post-parse
from the current domain, and thus virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc() will
never expose the state. However, since the testsuite lacks any
associated domain to copy state from, and lacks post-parse processing
that normal drivers have, the testsuite output had several spots with
the state, coupled with a regex filter to ignore the oddity.

It is better to follow the lead of other XML defaults, by not
outputting anything during format if post-parse defaults have not been
applied, and rejecting the default value during parsing. The testsuite
needs a bit of an update, by adding another flag for when to simulate
a post-parse action of setting a snapshot state, but none of the
drivers are impacted other than rejecting XML that was previously
already suspicious in nature.

Similarly, don't expose creation time 0 (for now, only possible if a
user redefined a snapshot to claim creation at the Epoch, but also
happens once setting the creation time is deferred to a post-parse
handler).

This is also a step towards cleaning up snapshot_conf.c to separate
its existing post-parse work (namely, setting the creationTime and
default snapshot name) from the pure parsing work, so that we can get
rid of the testsuite hack of regex filtering of the XML and instead
have more accurate testing of our parser/formatter code.

5b9819eedc domain capabilities: Expose firmware auto selection feature
If a management application wants to use firmware auto selection
feature it can't currently know if the libvirtd it's talking to
support is or not. Moreover, it doesn't know which values that
are accepted for the @firmware attribute of <os/> when parsing
will allow successful start of the domain later, i.e. if the mgmt
application wants to use 'bios' whether there exists a FW
descriptor in the system that describes bios.

This commit then adds 'firmware' enum to <os/> element in
<domainCapabilities/> XML like this:

  <enum name='firmware'>
    <value>bios</value>
    <value>efi</value>
  </enum>

We can see both 'bios' and 'efi' listed which means that there
are descriptors for both found in the system (matched with the
machine type and architecture reported in the domain capabilities
earlier and not shown here).
