As of QEMU 0.9.1 the -drive argument can be used to configure
all disks, so the QEMU driver can assume it is always available
and drop support for -hda/-cdrom/etc.
Many of the tests need updating because a great many were
running without CAPS_DRIVE set, so using the -hda legacy
syntax.
Fixing the tests uncovered a bug in the argv -> xml
convertor which failed to handle disk with if=floppy.

tests: handle backspace-newline pairs in test input files
all the test argv files were line wrapped so that the args
were less than 80 characters.
The way the line wrapping was done turns out to be quite
undesirable, because it often leaves multiple parameters
on the same line. If we later need to add or remove
individual parameters, then it leaves us having to redo
line wrapping.
This commit changes the line wrapping so that every
single "-param value" is one its own new line. If the
"value" is still too long, then we break on ',' or ':'
or ' ' as needed.
This means that when we come to add / remove parameters
from the test files line, the patch diffs will only
ever show a single line added/removed which will greatly
simplify review work.

Add a new capability to ensure the iothreads feature exists for the qemu
emulator being run - requires the "query-iothreads" QMP command. Using the
domain XML add correspoding command argument in order to generate the
threads. The iothreads will use a name space "iothread#" where, the
future patch to add support for using an iothread to a disk definition to
merely define which of the available threads to use.
Add tests to ensure the xml/argv processing is correct. Note that no
change was made to qemuargv2xmltest.c as processing the -object element
would require knowing more than just iothreads.
