568a417224 Enforce a standard header file guard symbol name
Require that all headers are guarded by a symbol named

  LIBVIRT_$FILENAME

where $FILENAME is the uppercased filename, with all characters
outside a-z changed into '_'.

Note we do not use a leading __ because that is technically a
namespace reserved for the toolchain.

4cfd709021 Fix many mistakes & inconsistencies in header file layout
This introduces a syntax-check script that validates header files use a
common layout:

  /*
   ...copyright header...
   */
  <one blank line>
  #ifndef SYMBOL
  # define SYMBOL
  ....content....
  #endif /* SYMBOL */

For any file ending priv.h, before the #ifndef, we will require a
guard to prevent bogus imports:

  #ifndef SYMBOL_ALLOW
  # error ....
  #endif /* SYMBOL_ALLOW */
  <one blank line>

The many mistakes this script identifies are then fixed.

600462834f Remove all Author(s): lines from source file headers
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 IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,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.

070b6f7f55 network: Move and rename networkMacMgrFileName
Move networkMacMgrFileName into src/util/virmacmap.c and rename to
virMacMapFileName. We're about to move some more MacMgr processing
files into virnetworkobj and it doesn't make sense to have this helper
in the driver or in virnetworkobj.

86980bc75c util: Introduce virMACMap module
This module will be used to track:

  <domain, mac address list>

pairs. It will be important to know these mappings without
libvirt connection (that is from a JSON file), because NSS
module will use those to provide better host name translation.
