These two public APIs are implemented for almost all other objects that
have a concept of persistent definition and activatability. Now that we
have node devices (mdevs) that can be defined and inactive, it will be
useful to query the persistent/active state of node devices as well.

Historically, we declared pointer type to our types:
typedef struct _virXXX virXXX;
typedef virXXX *virXXXPtr;
But usefulness of such declaration is questionable, at best.
Unfortunately, we can't drop every such declaration - we have to
carry some over, because they are part of public API (e.g.
virDomainPtr). But for internal types - we can do drop them and
use what every other C project uses 'virXXX *'.
This change was generated by a very ugly shell script that
generated sed script which was then called over each file in the
repository. For the shell script refer to the cover letter:

With mediated devices, we can now define persistent node devices that
can be started and stopped. In order to take advantage of this, we need
an API to define new node devices.

LIBVIRT_$FILENAME
where $FILENAME is the uppercased filename, with all characters
outside a-z changed into '_'.
Note we do not use a leading __ because that is technically a

Node device lifecycle event API entry points for registering and
deregistering node deivce events, as well as types of events
associated with node device.
These entry points will be used for implementing asynchronous
lifecycle events.
Node device API:
virConnectNodeDeviceEventRegisterAny
virConnectNodeDeviceEventDeregisterAny
virNodeDeviceEventLifecycleType which has events CREATED and DELETED
For stateless, client side drivers, it is never correct to
probe for secondary drivers. It is only ever appropriate to
use the secondary driver that is associated with the
hypervisor in question. As a result the ESX & HyperV drivers
have both been forced to do hacks where they register no-op
drivers for the ones they don't implement.
For stateful, server side drivers, we always just want to
use the same built-in shared driver. The exception is
virtualbox which is really a stateless driver and so wants
to use its own server side secondary drivers. To deal with
this virtualbox has to be built as 3 separate loadable
modules to allow registration to work in the right order.
This can all be simplified by introducing a new struct
recording the precise set of secondary drivers each
hypervisor driver wants
struct _virConnectDriver {
virHypervisorDriverPtr hypervisorDriver;
virInterfaceDriverPtr interfaceDriver;
virNetworkDriverPtr networkDriver;
virNodeDeviceDriverPtr nodeDeviceDriver;
virNWFilterDriverPtr nwfilterDriver;
virSecretDriverPtr secretDriver;
virStorageDriverPtr storageDriver;
};
Instead of registering the hypervisor driver, we now
just register a virConnectDriver instead. This allows
us to remove all probing of secondary drivers. Once we
have chosen the primary driver, we immediately know the
correct secondary drivers to use.

With the large number of APIs in libvirt the driver.h file,
it is easy to get lost looking for things. Split each driver
into a separate header file based on the functional driver
