Currently we only append a newline to 'actual' if 'expected'
(as loaded from file) already ends in a newline, but that
results in inconsistent behavior.
For example, some of the test files used by virhostcputest are
newline-terminated and some aren't. If we were to remove
existing newlines from those files or add them where they
aren't present, the test would still pass, and even using
VIR_TEST_REGENERATE_OUTPUT=1 wouldn't change them back.
Make things consistent by ensuring that 'actual' is always
newline-terminated. The only exception is when 'actual' is
completely empty: in that case, we want the file to be actually
empty, not contain a single empty line. query-jobs-empty.result
in qemumonitorjsondata/ is an example of this being used.

"start" in libvirt means - "take this object and create an
instance out of it"
"create" in libvirt most of the time means - "take and XML description,
make an object out of it and use it to create an instance"
This gets confusing with mdevctl which uses "start" for both. So, this
patch proposes to use virMdevctlStart in cases where from libvirt's POV
we're starting a defined device (unlike mdevctl). Similarly, use
virMdevctlCreate in scenarios where XML description is passed to
libvirt and a transient device is supposed to be created.
