This patch restores broken guest network connectivity after a host
firewalld is switched to using an nftables backend. It does this by
adding libvirt networks' bridge interfaces to the new "libvirt" zone
in firewalld.
After this patch, the bridge interface of any network created by
libvirt (when firewalld is active) will be added to the firewalld
zone called "libvirt" if it exists (regardless of the firewalld
backend setting). This behavior does *not* depend on whether or not
libvirt has installed the libvirt zone file (set with
"--with[out]-firewalld-zone" during the configure phase of the package
build).
If the libvirt zone doesn't exist (either because the package was
configured to not install it, or possibly it was installed, but
firewalld doesn't support rule priorities, resulting in a parse
error), the bridge will remain in firewalld's default zone, which
could be innocuous (in the case that the firewalld backend is
iptables, guest networking will still function properly with the
bridge in the default zone), or it could be disastrous (if the
firewalld backend is nftables, we can be assured that guest networking
will fail). In order to be unobtrusive in the former case, and
informative in the latter, when the libvirt zone doesn't exist we
then check the firewalld version to see if it's new enough to support
the nftables backend, and then if the backend is actually set to
nftables, before logging an error (and failing the net-start
operation, since the network couldn't possibly work anyway).
When the libvirt zone is used, network behavior is *slightly*
different from behavior of previous libvirt. In the past, libvirt
network behavior would be affected by the configuration of firewalld's
default zone (usually "public"), but now it is affected only by the
"libvirt" zone), and thus almost surely warrants a release note for
any distro upgrading to libvirt 5.1 or above. Although it's
unfortunate that we have to deal with a mandatory behavior change, the
architecture of multiple hooks makes it impossible to *not* change
behavior in some way, and the new behavior is arguably better (since
it will now be possible to manage access to the host from virtual
machines vs from public interfaces separately).

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.

Add a new memoryBacking source type "memfd", supported by QEMU (when
the capability is available).
A memfd is a specialized anonymous memory kind. As such, an anonymous
source type could be automatically using a memfd. However, there are
some complications when migrating from different memory backends in
qemu (mainly due to the internal object naming at this point, but
there could be more). For now, it is simpler and safer to simply
introduce a new source type "memfd". Eventually, the "anonymous" type
could learn to use memfd transparently in a separate change.
The main benefits are that it doesn't need to create filesystem files,
and it also enforces sealing, providing a bit more safety.

The most important part is LIBVIRTD_PATH env var fix. It is used
in virFileFindResourceFull() from tests. The libvirtd no longer
lives under daemon/.
Then, libvirtd-fail test was still failing (as expected) but not
because of missing config file but because it was trying to
execute (nonexistent) top_builddir/daemon/libvirtd which
fulfilled expected outcome and thus test did not fail.
Thirdly, lcov was told to generate coverage for daemon/ dir too.
Fourthly, our compiling documentation was still suggesting to run
daemonn/libvirtd.
And finally, some comments in a systemtap file and a probes file
were still referring to daemon/libvirtd.

Currently, the functions return a pointer to the
destination buffer on success or NULL on failure.
Not only does this kind of error handling look quite
alien in the context of libvirt, where most functions
return zero on success and a negative int on failure,
but it's also somewhat pointless because unless there's
been a failure the returned pointer will be the same
one passed in by the user, thus offering no additional
value.
Change the functions so that they return an int
instead.

Historically, we've always enabled an emulated video device every time we
see that graphics should be supported with a guest. With the appearance
of mediated devices which can support QEMU's vfio-display capability,
users might want to use such a device as the only video device.
Therefore introduce a new, effectively a 'disable', type for video
device.

QEMU 2.12 introduced a new type of display for mediated devices using
vfio-pci backend which allows a mediated device to be used as a VGA
compatible device as an alternative to an emulated video device. QEMU
exposes this feature via a vfio device property 'display' with supported
values 'on/off/auto' (libvirt will default to 'off').
This patch adds the necessary bits to domain config handling in order to
expose this feature. Since there's no convenient way for libvirt to come
up with usable defaults for the display setting, simply because libvirt
is not able to figure out which of the display implementations - dma-buf
which requires OpenGL support vs vfio regions which doesn't need OpenGL
(works with OpenGL enabled too) - the underlying mdev uses.

Since 2.10 QEMU supports a new display type egl-headless which uses the
drm nodes for OpenGL rendering copying back the rendered bits back to
QEMU into a dma-buf which can be accessed by standard "display" apps
like VNC or SPICE. Although this display type can be used on its own,
for any practical use case it makes sense to pair it with either VNC or
SPICE display. The clear benefit of this display is that VNC gains
OpenGL support, which it natively doesn't have, and SPICE gains remote
OpenGL support (native OpenGL support only works locally through a UNIX
socket, i.e. listen type=socket/none).
