6564cb01e1 tests: Mock virProcessGetMaxMemLock()
Up until now we've implicitly relied on the fact that failures
reported from this function were simply ignored, but that's
about to change and so we need a proper mock.

ef4c325f25 virCommandSetSendBuffer: Provide saner semantics
The function is used to automatically feed a buffer into a pipe which
can be used by the command to read contents of the buffer.

Rather than passing in a pipe, let's create the pipe inside
virCommandSetSendBuffer and directly associate the reader end with the
command. This way the ownership of both ends of the pipe will end up
with the virCommand right away reducing the need of cleanup in callers.

The returned value then can be used just to format the appropriate
arguments without worrying about cleanup or failure.

8851d87556 qemu: use on|off instead of yes|no for -object boolean properties
QEMU has long accepted many different values for boolean properties, but
set accepted has been different depending on which QEMU parser you hit.

The on|off values were supported by all QEMU parsers. The yes|no, y|n,
true|false values were only partially supported:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-11/msg01012.html

Thus we should standardize on on|off everywhere since that is most
widely supported in QEMU.

db64acfbda conf: parse/format <teaming> element in plain <hostdev>
The <teaming> element in <interface> allows pairing two interfaces
together as a simple "failover bond" network device in a guest. One of
the devices is the "transient" interface - it will be preferred for
all network traffic when it is present, but may be removed when
necessary, in particular during migration, when traffic will instead
go through the other interface of the pair - the "persistent"
interface. As it happens, in the QEMU implementation of this teaming
pair (called "virtio failover" in QEMU) the transient interface is
always a host network device assigned to the guest using VFIO (aka
"hostdev"); the persistent interface is always an emulated virtio NIC.

When support was initially added for <teaming>, it was written to
require that the transient/hostdev device be defined using <interface
type='hostdev'>; this was done because the virtio failover
implementation in QEMU and the virtio guest driver demands that the
two interfaces in the pair have matching MAC addresses, and the only
way libvirt can guarantee the MAC address of a hostdev network device
is to use <interface type='hostdev'>, whose main purpose is to
configure the device's MAC address before handing the device to
QEMU. (note that <interface type='hostdev'> in turn requires that the
network device be an SRIOV VF (Virtual Function), as that is the only
type of network device whose MAC address we can set in a way that will
survive the device's driver init in the guest).

It has recently come up that some users are unable to use <teaming>
because they are running in a container environment where libvirt
doesn't have the necessary privileges or resources to set the VF's MAC
address (because setting the VF MAC is done via the same device's PF
(Physical Function), and the PF is not exposed to libvirt's container).

At the same time, these users *are* able to set the VF's MAC address
themselves in advance of staring up libvirt in the container. So they
could theoretically use the <teaming> feature if libvirt just skipped
the "setting the MAC address" part.

Fortunately, that is *exactly* the difference between <interface
type='hostdev'> (which must be a "hostdev VF") and <hostdev> (a "plain
hostdev" - it could be *any* PCI device; libvirt doesn't know what type
of PCI device it is, and doesn't care).

But what is still needed is for libvirt to provide a small bit of
information on the QEMU commandline argument for the hostdev, telling
QEMU that this device will be part of a team ("failover pair"), and
the id of the other device in the pair.

To make both of those goals simultaneously possible, this patch adds
support for the <teaming> element to plain <hostdev> - libvirt doesn't
try to set any MAC addresses, and QEMU gets the extra commandline
argument it needs)

(actually, this patch adds only the parsing/formatting of the
<teaming> element in <hostdev>. The next patch will actually wire that
into the qemu driver.)

E.g. with TPM device config

     <tpm model='tpm-tis'>

QEMU reports the following error

Indeed the TPM device name is 'tpm-tis-device' [1][2] for aarch64,
versus the shorter 'tpm-tis' for x86. The devices are the same from
a functional POV, i.e. they both emulate a TPM device conforming to
the TIS specification. Account for the unfortunate name difference
when building the TPM device option in qemuBuildTPMDevStr(). Also
include a test case for 'tpm-tis-device'.

The refactor also optimizes the loading from file where previously we'd
do a hash lookup + list lenght calculation for every entry.

677c90cc1d qemu: Do not Use canonical path for system memory
In commit 88957116c9 I've adapted
libvirt to QEMU's deprecation of -mem-path and -mem-prealloc and
switched to memory-backend-* even for system memory. My claim was
that that's what QEMU does under the hood anyway. And indeed it
was: see QEMU commit 900c0ba373aada4c13d47d95330aa72ec4067ba5 and
look at function create_default_memdev().

However, then commit d96c4d5f193e0e45beec80a6277728b32875bddb was
merged into QEMU. While it was fixing a bug, it also changed the
create_default_memdev() function in which it started turning off
use of canonical path (by setting
"x-use-canonical-path-for-ramblock-id" attribute to false). This
wasn't documented until QEMU commit
8db0b20415c129cf5e577a593a4a0372d90b7cc9. The path affects
migration - the same path has to be used on the source and on the
destination. Therefore, if there is old guest started with '-m X'
it has "pc.ram" block which doesn't use canonical path and thus
when migrating to newer QEMU which uses memory-backend-* we have
to turn off the canonical path explicitly. Otherwise,
"/objects/pc.ram" path would be expected by QEMU which doesn't
match the source.

Ideally, we would need to set it only for some machine types
(4.0 and older) because newer machine types already do what we
are doing. However, we treat machine types as opaque strings and
therefore we don't want to parse nor inspect their versions. But
then again, newer machine types already do what we are doing in
this commit, so when old machine types are deprecated and removed
we can remove our hack and forget it ever happened.
