Some layered products such as oVirt have requested a way to avoid being
blocked by guest agent commands when querying a loaded vm. For example,
many guest agent commands are polled periodically to monitor changes,
and rather than blocking the calling process, they'd prefer to simply
time out when an agent query is taking too long.
This patch adds a way for the user to specify a custom agent timeout
that is applied to all agent commands.
One special case to note here is the 'guest-sync' command. 'guest-sync'
is issued internally prior to calling any other command. (For example,
when libvirt wants to call 'guest-get-fsinfo', we first call
'guest-sync' and then call 'guest-get-fsinfo').
Previously, the 'guest-sync' command used a 5-second timeout
(VIR_DOMAIN_QEMU_AGENT_COMMAND_DEFAULT), whereas the actual command that
followed always blocked indefinitely
(VIR_DOMAIN_QEMU_AGENT_COMMAND_BLOCK). As part of this patch, if a
custom timeout is specified that is shorter than
5 seconds, this new timeout is also used for 'guest-sync'. If there is
no custom timeout or if the custom timeout is longer than 5 seconds, we
will continue to use the 5-second timeout.

For quite some time now it is impossible to connect to a domain
using a HMP monitor, so there is no point in formatting it in the status
XML.

When the block copy operation is started with a reused external file in
incremental mode libvirt will need to open and insert the backing chain
for that file into qemu (in -blockdev mode). This means that we'll need
to track the backing chain and metadata such as node names for the full
chain of <mirror>.
This patch invokes the full backing chain formatter and parser for
<mirror> so that the chain can be kept with <mirror>.

Add new approach to properly test status XML files by supplying a full
XML file rather than generating synthetic test cases by prepending the
status header. The two tests introduced here are copies of existing
cases using the synthetic header so that current level of testing is
kept. The files are chosen to excercising the vcpu and blockjob quirks
present in the current testing.
