36785c7e77 device: cleanup input device code
The current code was a little bit odd.  At first we've removed all
possible implicit input devices from domain definition to add them later
back if there was any graphics device defined while parsing XML
description.  That's not all, while formating domain definition to XML
description we at first ignore any input devices with bus different to
USB and VIRTIO and few lines later we add implicit input devices to XML.

This seems to me as a lot of code for nothing.  This patch may look
to be more complicated than original approach, but this is a preferred
way to modify/add driver specific stuff only in those drivers and not
deal with them in common parsing/formating functions.

The update is to add those implicit input devices into config XML to
follow the real HW configuration visible by guest OS.

There was also inconsistence between our behavior and QEMU's in the way,
that in QEMU there is no way how to disable those implicit input devices
for x86 architecture and they are available always, even without graphics
device.  This applies also to XEN hypervisor.  VZ driver already does its
part by putting correct implicit devices into live XML.

546154e3d4 conf: Format and parse backing chains in domain XML
This patch implements formating and parsing code for the backing store
schema defined and documented by the previous patch.

This patch does not aim at providing full persistent storage of disk
backing chains yet. The formatter is supposed to provide the backing
chain detected when starting a domain and thus it is not formatted into
an inactive domain XML. The parser is implemented mainly for the purpose
of testing the XML generated by the formatter and thus it does not
distinguish between no backingStore element and an empty backingStore
element. This will have to change once we fully implement support for
user-supplied backing chains.

0f082e699e selinux: distinguish failure to label from request to avoid label
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=924153

Commit 904e05a2 (v0.9.9) added a per-<disk> seclabel element with
an attribute relabel='no' in order to try and minimize the
impact of shutdown delays when an NFS server disappears.  The idea
was that if a disk is on NFS and can't be labeled in the first
place, there is no need to attempt the (no-op) relabel on domain
shutdown.  Unfortunately, the way this was implemented was by
modifying the domain XML so that the optimization would survive
libvirtd restart, but in a way that is indistinguishable from an
explicit user setting.  Furthermore, once the setting is turned
on, libvirt avoids attempts at labeling, even for operations like
snapshot or blockcopy where the chain is being extended or pivoted
onto non-NFS, where SELinux labeling is once again possible.  As
a result, it was impossible to do a blockcopy to pivot from an
NFS image file onto a local file.

The solution is to separate the semantics of a chain that must
not be labeled (which the user can set even on persistent domains)
vs. the optimization of not attempting a relabel on cleanup (a
live-only annotation), and using only the user's explicit notation
rather than the optimization as the decision on whether to skip
a label attempt in the first place.  When upgrading an older
libvirtd to a newer, an NFS volume will still attempt the relabel;
but as the avoidance of a relabel was only an optimization, this
shouldn't cause any problems.

In the ideal future, libvirt will eventually have XML describing
EVERY file in the backing chain, with each file having a separate
<seclabel> element.  At that point, libvirt will be able to track
more closely which files need a relabel attempt at shutdown.  But
until we reach that point, the single <seclabel> for the entire
<disk> chain is treated as a hint - when a chain has only one
file, then we know it is accurate; but if the chain has more than
one file, we have to attempt relabel in spite of the attribute,
in case part of the chain is local and SELinux mattered for that
portion of the chain.
