Update the host CPU code to report the die_id in the NUMA topology
capabilities. On systems with multiple dies, this fixes the bug
where CPU cores can't be distinguished:
<cpus num='12'>
<cpu id='0' socket_id='0' core_id='0' siblings='0'/>
<cpu id='1' socket_id='0' core_id='1' siblings='1'/>
<cpu id='2' socket_id='0' core_id='0' siblings='2'/>
<cpu id='3' socket_id='0' core_id='1' siblings='3'/>
</cpus>
Notice how core_id is repeated within the scope of the same socket_id.
It now reports
<cpus num='12'>
<cpu id='0' socket_id='0' die_id='0' core_id='0' siblings='0'/>
<cpu id='1' socket_id='0' die_id='0' core_id='1' siblings='1'/>
<cpu id='2' socket_id='0' die_id='1' core_id='0' siblings='2'/>
<cpu id='3' socket_id='0' die_id='1' core_id='1' siblings='3'/>
</cpus>
So core_id is now unique within a (socket_id, die_id) pair.

Recently CPU hardware vendors have started to support a new structure
inside the CPU package topology known as a "die". Thus the hierarchy
is now:
sockets > dies > cores > threads
This adds support for "dies" in the XML parser, with the value
defaulting to 1 if not specified for backwards compatibility.
For example a system with 64 logical CPUs might report
<topology sockets="4" dies="2" cores="4" threads="2"/>

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>

When QEMU uid/gid is set to non-root this is pointless as if we just
used a regular setuid/setgid call, the process will have all its
capabilities cleared anyway by the kernel.
When QEMU uid/gid is set to root, this is almost (always?) never
what people actually want. People make QEMU run as root in order
to access some privileged resource that libvirt doesn't support
yet and this often requires capabilities. As a result they have
to go find the qemu.conf param to turn this off. This is not
viable for libguestfs - they want to control everything via the
XML security label to request running as root regardless of the
qemu.conf settings for user/group.
Clearing capabilities was implemented originally because there
was a proposal in Fedora to change permissions such that root,
with no capabilities would not be able to compromise the system.
ie a locked down root account. This never went anywhere though,
and as a result clearing capabilities when running as root does
not really get us any security benefit AFAICT. The root user
can easily do something like create a cronjob, which will then
faithfully be run with full capabilities, trivially bypassing
the restriction we place.
IOW, our clearing of capabilities is both useless from a security
POV, and breaks valid use cases when people need to run as root.
This removes the clear_emulator_capabilities configuration
option from qemu.conf, and always runs QEMU with capabilities
when root. The behaviour when non-root is unchanged.
