2e14861224 storage: support more scaling suffixes
Disk manufacturers are fond of quoting sizes in powers of 10,
rather than powers of 2 (after all, 2.1 GB sounds larger than
2.0 GiB, even though the exact opposite is true).  So, we might
as well follow coreutils' lead in supporting three types of
suffix: single letter ${u} (which we already had) and ${u}iB
for the power of 2, and ${u}B for power of 10.

Additionally, it is impossible to create a file with more than
2**63 bytes, since off_t is signed (if you have enough storage
to even create one 8EiB file, I'm jealous).  This now reports
failure up front rather than down the road when the kernel
finally refuses an impossible size.

* docs/schemas/basictypes.rng (unit): Add suffixes.
* src/conf/storage_conf.c (virStorageSize): Use new function.
* docs/formatstorage.html.in: Document it.
* tests/storagevolxml2xmlin/vol-file-backing.xml: Test it.
* tests/storagevolxml2xmlin/vol-file.xml: Likewise.

9dfdeadc8a docs: use correct terminology for 1024 bytes
Yes, I like kilobytes better than kibibytes (when I say kilobytes,
I generally mean 1024).  But since the term is ambiguous, it can't
hurt to say what we mean, by using both the correct name and
calling out the numeric equivalent.

* src/libvirt.c (virDomainGetMaxMemory, virDomainSetMaxMemory)
(virDomainSetMemory, virDomainSetMemoryFlags)
(virNodeGetFreeMemory): Tweak wording.
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Likewise.
* docs/formatstorage.html.in: Likewise.

20be699ee3 storage: add support for Vendor and Model in XML
I wrote a patch to add support for listing the Vendor and Model of a
storage pool in the storage pool XML.  This would allow vendor
extensions of specific devices.  The patch includes a test for the new
attributes as well.

042956d558 Fix owner and group in example volume XML
The owner and group in the documentation examples were confusingly given as
'0744'. They should be numeric uid and gid. Changed the examples to use the
default uid and gid assigned to qemu in F12.

eda3af2488 Attach encryption information to virStorageVolDef.
The XML allows <encryption format='unencrypted'/>, this implementation
canonicalizes the internal representation so that "vol->encryption" is
non-NULL iff the volume is encrypted.

Note that partial encryption information (e.g. specifying an encryption
format, but not the key/passphrase) is valid, libvirt will automatically
choose value for the missing information during volume creation.  The
user can read the volume XML, and use the unmodified <encryption> tag in
future operations (without having to be able to understand) its contents.

* docs/formatstorage.html, docs/formatstorage.html.in: Document
  storage volume encryption options
* src/storage_conf.c, src/storage_conf.h: Hook up storage
  encryption XML handling
* tests/storagevolschemadata/vol-qcow2.xml: Test case for encryption
