The phyp driver was added in 2009 and does not appear to have had any
real feature change since 2011. There's virtually no evidence online
of users actually using it. IMO it's time to kill it.

This patch introduces a new PCI hostdev address type called
'unassigned'. This new type gives users the option to add
PCI hostdevs to the domain XML in an 'unassigned' state, meaning
that the device exists in the domain, is managed by Libvirt
like any regular PCI hostdev, but the guest does not have
access to it.
This adds extra options for managing PCI device binding
inside Libvirt, for example, making all the managed PCI hostdevs
declared in the domain XML to be detached from the host and bind
to the chosen driver and, at the same time, allowing just a
subset of these devices to be usable by the guest.
Next patch will use this new address type in the QEMU driver to
avoid adding unassigned devices to the QEMU launch command line.

There is this class of PCI devices that act like disks: NVMe.
Therefore, they are both PCI devices and disks. While we already
have <hostdev/> (and can assign a NVMe device to a domain
successfully) we don't have disk representation. There are three
problems with PCI assignment in case of a NVMe device:
1) domains with <hostdev/> can't be migrated
2) NVMe device is assigned whole, there's no way to assign only a
namespace
3) Because hypervisors see <hostdev/> they don't put block layer
on top of it - users don't get all the fancy features like
snapshots
NVMe namespaces are way of splitting one continuous NVDIMM memory
into smaller ones, effectively creating smaller NVMe-s (which can
then be partitioned, LVMed, etc.)
Because of all of this the following XML was chosen to model a
NVMe device:
<disk type='nvme' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source type='pci' managed='yes' namespace='1'>
<address domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
</source>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>

Although <interface type='ethernet'> has always been able to use an
existing tap device, this is just a coincidence due to the fact that
the same ioctl is used to create a new tap device or get a handle to
an existing device.
Even then, once we have the handle to the device, we still insist on
doing extra setup to it (setting the MAC address and IFF_UP). That
*might* be okay if libvirtd is running as a privileged process, but if
libvirtd is running as an unprivileged user, those attempted
modifications to the tap device will fail (yes, even if the tap is set
to be owned by the user running libvirtd). We could avoid this if we
knew that the device already existed, but as stated above, an existing
device and new device are both accessed in the same manner, and
anyway, we need to preserve existing behavior for those who are
already using pre-existing devices with privileged libvirtd (and
allowing/expecting libvirt to configure the pre-existing device).
In order to cleanly support the idea of using a pre-existing and
pre-configured tap device, this patch introduces a new optional
attribute "managed" for the interface <target> element. This
attribute is only valid for <interface type='ethernet'> (since all
other interface types have mandatory config that doesn't apply in the
case where we expect the tap device to be setup before we
get it). The syntax would look something like this:
<interface type='ethernet'>
<target dev='mytap0' managed='no'/>
...
</interface>
This patch just adds managed to the grammar and parser for <target>,
but has no functionality behind it.
(NB: when managed='no' (the default when not specified is 'yes'), the
target dev is always a name explicitly provided, so we don't
auto-remove it from the config just because it starts with "vnet"
(VIR_NET_GENERATED_TAP_PREFIX); this makes it possible to use the
same pattern of names that libvirt itself uses when it automatically
creates the tap devices.)

The idea is that using this attribute users enable libvirt to
automagically select firmware image for their domain. For
instance:
<os firmware='efi'>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-4.0'>hvm</type>
<loader secure='no'/>
</os>
<os firmware='bios'>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-4.0'>hvm</type>
</os>
(The automagic of selecting firmware image will be described in
later commits.)
Accepted values are 'bios' and 'efi' to let libvirt select
corresponding type of firmware.
I know it is a good sign to introduce xml2xml test case when
changing XML config parser but that will have to come later.
Firmware auto selection is not enabled for any driver just yet so
any xml2xml test would fail right away.

some complications when migrating from different memory backends in
qemu (mainly due to the internal object naming at this point, but
there could be more). For now, it is simpler and safer to simply
introduce a new source type "memfd". Eventually, the "anonymous" type
could learn to use memfd transparently in a separate change.
The main benefits are that it doesn't need to create filesystem files,
