018f7fa8dc meson: remove '.libs' from all relevant paths
Meson doesn't use .libs directory, everything is placed directly into
directories where meson.build file is used.

In order to have working tests and running libvirt directly from GIT we
need to fix all the paths pointing '.libs' directory.

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 IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,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.

cfdc0c771a Forget last daemon/ dir artefacts
The most important part is LIBVIRTD_PATH env var fix. It is used
in virFileFindResourceFull() from tests. The libvirtd no longer
lives under daemon/.

Then, libvirtd-fail test was still failing (as expected) but not
because of missing config file but because it was trying to
execute (nonexistent) top_builddir/daemon/libvirtd which
fulfilled expected outcome and thus test did not fail.

Thirdly, lcov was told to generate coverage for daemon/ dir too.

Fourthly, our compiling documentation was still suggesting to run
daemonn/libvirtd.

And finally, some comments in a systemtap file and a probes file
were still referring to daemon/libvirtd.

0e7457e501 Fix common misspellings
Wikipedia's list of common misspellings [1] has a machine-readable
version.  This patch fixes those misspellings mentioned in the list
which don't have multiple right variants (as e.g. "accension", which can
be both "accession" and "ascension"), such misspellings are left
untouched.  The list of changes was manually re-checked for false
positives.

4480cd2837 examples: add systemtap script to ease lock debugging
As discussed before, this simple script should help with debugging
deadlocks, although there are still some caveats.  RWLocks are not
handled by this and if your deadlock if very racy, it may not lock
up when running with this script due to the slowdown.
