7c72ef6f55 Add helper for running code in separate namespaces
Implement virProcessRunInMountNamespace, which runs callback of type
virProcessNamespaceCallback in a container namespace. This uses a
child process to run the callback, since you can't change the mount
namespace of a thread. This implies that callbacks have to be careful
about what code they run due to async safety rules.

979e9c56a7 Include process start time when doing polkit checks
Since PIDs can be reused, polkit prefers to be given
a (PID,start time) pair. If given a PID on its own,
it will attempt to lookup the start time in /proc/pid/stat,
though this is subject to races.

It is safer if the client app resolves the PID start
time itself, because as long as the app has the client
socket open, the client PID won't be reused.

776d49f492 util: new virCommandSetMax(MemLock|Processes|Files)
This patch adds two sets of functions:

1) lower level virProcessSet*() functions that will immediately set
the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. RLIMIT_NPROC, or RLIMIT_NOFILE of either the
current process (using setrlimit()) or any other process (using
prlimit()). "current process" is indicated by passing a 0 for pid.

2) functions for virCommand* that will setup a virCommand object to
set those limits at a later time just after it has forked a new
process, but before it execs the new program.

configure.ac has prlimit and setrlimit added to the list of functions
to check for, and the low level functions log an "unsupported" error)
on platforms that don't support those functions.

8fd3823117 Move most of qemuProcessKill into virProcessKillPainfully
In the cgroups APIs we have a virCgroupKillPainfully function
which does the loop sending SIGTERM, then SIGKILL and waiting
for the process to exit. There is similar functionality for
simple processes in qemuProcessKill, but it is tangled with
the QEMU code. Untangle it to provide a virProcessKillPainfuly
function

e5e2b65cf8 Move virProcessKill into virprocess.{h,c}
There are a number of process related functions spread
across multiple files. Start to consolidate them by
creating a virprocess.{c,h} file
