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.

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>

Based on recent list questions about the proposed addition of
virDomainCheckpointCreateXML(REDEFINE), it is worth adding some
clarification to the existing snapshot redefine documentation that is
serving as the basis for checkpoints.
Normal snapshot creation requires very few elements from the user XML
(libvirt can pick sane defaults for items that are omitted, and many
fields, including <domain>, are documented as readonly output fields
ignored on input, produced by drivers that track it). But during
REDEFINE, the API wants the complete XML produced by an earlier
virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc; as the domain definition has likely
changed since the snapshot was first created, libvirt is unable to
recreate a <domain> sub-element that matches the original output
representing the domain state at the time the snapshot was first
created. In fact, reverting without a <domain> sub-element is risky
enough that we had to add a FORCE flag for virDomainSnapshotRevert().
In short, we only support omitting domain for qemu because of
backwards-compatibility to snapshots created before 0.9.5 started
capturing <domain>; even though there are other drivers like vbox that
do not output <domain> because they have other reliable ways to
revert.
And based on the confusion caused when omitting <domain> from snapshot
XML, the initial design for checkpoints in later patches will make
<domain> a mandatory element during its REDEFINE.
[Side note: the fact that <domain> can appear in <domainsnapshot> is a
reason we cannot add a new API for a bulk listing or redefine of all
snapshots of a single domain in one XML call (for example, a 1M
<domain> XML * 16 snapshots explodes into 16M in a bulk form, which
gets difficult to send over RPC). Perhaps we could add a flag to
request that the <domain> sub-element be omitted on output, but such
output is no longer suitable for sane REDEFINE input.]

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).

PolicyKit authentication rules have switched to a JavaScript based
format quite some time ago. See:

While backwards compat for the old .pkla format is still available, it
makes sense to point people first at the new format.

NVDIMM emulation will mmap the backend file, it uses host pagesize
as the alignment of mapping address before, but some backends may
require alignments different from the pagesize. So the 'alignsize'
option is introduced to allow specification of the proper alignment:
<devices>
...
<memory model='nvdimm' access='shared'>
<source>
<path>/dev/dax0.0</path>
<alignsize unit='MiB'>2</alignsize>
</source>

<node>0</node>
<label>
<size unit='MiB'>2</size>

/domain/memtune/hard_limit provides a way to cap the memory a VM process
can use, including the amount of memory the process can lock. When memory
locking of a VM is requested, <hard_limit> can be used to prevent the
potential host DoS issue mentioned in /domain/memoryBacking/locked
description.
This patch improves the <hard_limit> text by clarifying it can be used
to prevent "host crashing" when VM memory is locked.

The QEMU command line arguments are very long and currently all written
on a single line to /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$GUEST.log. This introduces
logic to add line breaks after every env variable and "-" optional
argument, and every positional argument. This will create a clearer log
file, which will in turn present better in bug reports when people cut +
paste from the log into a bug comment.
An example log file entry now looks like this:

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.

Unlike with SPICE and SDL which use the <gl> subelement to enable OpenGL
acceleration, specifying egl-headless graphics in the XML has
essentially the same meaning, thus in case of egl-headless we don't have
a need for the 'enable' element attribute and we'll only be interested
in the 'rendernode' one further down the road.

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.
