Domains configured with autostart may fail to start if the host
network stack has not been started. E.g. when using bridged
networking autostarting a domain can fail with
libvirtd[1403]: 2012-06-20 13:23:49.833+0000: 1485: error :
qemuAutostartDomain:177 : Failed to autostart VM 'test': Cannot get

Adding syslog.target is obsolete, avahi.target does not
exist and dbus.target is also obsolete

There is no 'udev.target' unit in systemd (only 'udev.service')
yet libvirtd's unit file had a dep on one. There's no compelling
reason for a dep on udev, so remove it altogether.

Currently the libvirt.service unit file for systemd does not
specify any kill mode. So systemd kills off every process
inside its cgroup. ie all dnsmasq processes, all virtual
machines. This obviously not what we want. Set KillMode=process
so that it only kills the top level process of libvirtd
* daemon/libvirtd.service.in: Add KillMode=process

One of my latest patches (d8db0f9690) created support for setting
the limit for the maximum of opened files by qemu user. However,
since libvirtd keeps one FD opened per domain (well, for qemu at least)
it will likely hit this limit on huge scenarios.
This patch adds support for a systemd init service for libvirtd
and libvirt-guests. The libvirtd.service is *not* written to use
socket activation, since we want libvirtd to start on boot so it
can do guest auto-start.
The libvirt-guests.service is pretty lame, just exec'ing the
original init script for now. Ideally we would factor out the
functionality, into some shared tool.
Instead of
./configure --with-init-script=redhat
You can now do
./configure --with-init-script=systemd
Or better still:
./configure --with-init-script=systemd+redhat
We can also now support install of the upstart init script
* configure.ac: Add systemd, and systemd+redhat options to
--with-init-script option
* daemon/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* daemon/libvirtd.sysconf: Add note about unused env variable
with systemd
* daemon/libvirtd.service.in: libvirtd systemd service unit
* libvirt.spec.in: Add scripts to installing systemd services
and migrating from legacy init scripts
* tools/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* tools/libvirt-guests.init.sh: Rename to tools/libvirt-guests.init.in
* tools/libvirt-guests.service.in: systemd service unit
