22f7ceb695 nss: Introduce libvirt-guest module
So far the NSS module looks up only hostnames as provided by
guests themselves. However, there are some cases where this is
not enough: e.g. when there's a fresh new guest being installed
(with some generic hostname) say from a live ISO image; or some
(older) systems don't advertise their hostname in DHCP
transactions at all.
In cases like that it would be helpful if we translate domain
name as seen by libvirt too so that users can:

  # virsh start $dom && ssh $dom

In order to achieve that new libvirt-guest module is introduced,
while older libvirt module maintains its current behaviour (that
is translating guest provided names into IP addresses).

ae5d30a0b3 conf: Wire up the vhost-scsi connection from/to XML
With the QEMU components in place, provide the XML parsing to
invoke that code when given the following XML snippet:

    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi_host'>
      <source protocol='vhost' wwpn='naa.501234567890abcd'/>
    </hostdev>

An optional address element can be specified within the hostdev
(pick CCW or PCI as necessary):

    <address type='ccw' cssid='0xfe' ssid='0x0' devno='0x0625'/>
    <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>

Add basic vhost-scsi tests which were cloned from hostdev-scsi-virtio-scsi
in both xml2argv and xml2xml. Added ones for both vhost-scsi-ccw and
vhost-scsi-pci since the syntaxes are slightly different between them.

Also adjusted the docs to describe the changes.

ae381879f3 Forbid new-line char in name of new storagepool
New line character in name of storagepool is now forbidden because it
mess virsh output and can be confusing for users.
Validation of name is done in driver, after parsing XML to avoid
problems with dissappeared pools which was already created with
new-line char in name.

bb91111ce2 NEWS: Split old entries (2009)
The changes for releases earlier than 0.7.1 were mostly lumped
together as opposed to being tidly organized with one change per
line, like we have done from that point onwards.

As a result, they look awful in the HTML version and don't work
too well in the plain text version either.

Luckily, except for the very first releases, the information is
still very detailed, so it's enough to organize it properly.
