e808357528 nodeinfo: Introduce @arch to linuxNodeInfoCPUPopulate
So far, we are doing compile time decisions on which architecture is
used. However, for testing purposes it's much easier if we pass host
architecture as parameter and then let the function decide which code
snippet for extracting host CPU info will be used.

b39275954b conf: Remove the implicit PS2 devices for non-X86 platforms
PS2 devices only work on X86 platform, other platforms may need
USB devices instead. Athough it doesn't influence the QEMU command line,
it's not right to add PS2 mouse/keyboard for non-X86 platform.

8757d0abbc Add support for detecting PPC little endian arches
The recent patch series proposing the addition of PPC little endian
arch support to Linux defines new arch names 'ppcle' and 'ppc64le':

https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2013-August/109908.html

This just makes libvirt know about these arch names, so it doesn't
immediately trip up if it seems these new names from uname.

670c08afd4 AArch64: Add AArch64 architecture to list of valid arches.
Adding AArch64(ARMv8 64bit) to the current list of valid architectures.

For now, AArch64 name would imply AArch64 LE mode only. In future,
we might have separate names for AArch64 LE and BE.

ea3534fc54 Add ARM v7 big-endian architecture (armv7b)
ARM v7 can operate in either little or big endian modes. Add
support for the big-endian version known as armv7b from uname.

9c29c52c5a Add armv6l architecture to list of valid arches
The Raspberry Pi runs the armv6l architecture and apparently
people are trying to run libvirt LXC on it. So we should allow
that as a valid arch

0333180185 Introduce a set of APIs for managing architectures
Introduce a 'virArch' enum for CPU architectures. Include
data type providing wordsize and endianness, and APIs to
query this info and convert to/from enum and string form.
