If QEMU in question supports QMP, this capability is set if
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL was set based on existence of "-device qxl". If
libvirt needs to parse *help*, because there is no QMP support, it
checks for existence of "-vga qxl", but it also parses output of
"-device ?" and sets QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL too.
Now that libvirt supports only QEMU that has "-device" implemented it's
safe to drop this capability and stop using it.

This patch simplifies QEMU capabilities for QXL video device. QEMU
exposes this device as *qxl-vga* and *qxl* and they are both the same
device with the same set of parameters, the only difference is that
*qxl-vga* includes VGA compatibility.
Based on QEMU code they are tied together so it's safe to check only for
presence of only one of them.
This patch also removes an invalid test case "video-qxl-sec-nodevice"
where there is only *qxl-vga* device and *qxl* device is not present.

The only QEMU versions that don't have such capability are <0.12,
which we no longer support anyway.
Additionally, this solves the issue of some QEMU binaries being
reported as not having such capability just because they lacked
the {kvm-}pci-assign QMP object.
The -sdl and -net ...name=XXX arguments were both introduced
in QEMU 0.10, so the QEMU driver can assume they are always
available.

As of QEMU 0.9.1 the -drive argument can be used to configure
all disks, so the QEMU driver can assume it is always available
and drop support for -hda/-cdrom/etc.
Many of the tests need updating because a great many were
running without CAPS_DRIVE set, so using the -hda legacy
syntax.
Fixing the tests uncovered a bug in the argv -> xml
convertor which failed to handle disk with if=floppy.

The downstream ports of an x3130-upstream switch can each have one of
these plugged into them (and that is the only place they can be
connected). Each xio3130-downstream provides a single PCIe port that
can have PCI or PCIe devices hotplugged into it. Apparently an entire
set of x3130-upstream + several xio3130-downstreams can be hotplugged
as a unit, but it's not clear to me yet how that would be done, since
qemu only allows attaching a single device at a time.
This device will be used to implement the
"pcie-switch-downstream-port" model of pci controller.
This is the upstream part of a PCIe switch. It connects to a PCIe port
(but not PCI) on the upstream side, and can have up to 31
xio3130-downstream controllers (but no other types of devices)
connected to its downstream side.
This device will be used to implement the "pcie-switch-upstream-port"
model of pci controller.
This is a PCIE "root port". It connects only to a port of the
integrated pcie.0 bus of a Q35 machine (can't be hotplugged), and
provides a single PCIe port that can have PCI or PCIe devices
hotplugged into it.
This device will be used to implement the "pcie-root-port" model of
pci controller.
If probing capabilities via QMP fails, we now have a check
that prevents us falling back to -help parsing. Unfortunately
the error message
"Failed to probe capabilities for /usr/bin/qemu-kvm:
unsupported configuration: QEMU 2.1.2 is too new for help parsing"
is proving rather unhelpful to the user. We need to be telling
them why QMP failed (the root cause), rather than they can't
use -help (the side effect).
To do this we should capture stderr during QMP probing, and
if -help parsing then sees a new QEMU version, we know that
QMP should have worked, and so we can show the messages from
stderr. The message thus becomes
"Failed to probe capabilities for /usr/bin/qemu-kvm:
internal error: QEMU / QMP failed: Could not access
KVM kernel module: No such file or directory
failed to initialize KVM: No such file or directory"
Since QEMU 1.2.0, we switched to QMP probing instead of parsing -help
(and other commands, such as -cpu ?) output. However, if QMP probing
failed, we still tried starting QEMU with various options and parsing
the output, which was guaranteed to fail because the output changed.
Let's just refuse parsing -help for QEMU >= 1.2.0.

Quite a long time ago, (apparently between qemu 0.12 and 0.13) qemu
quietly began supporting the optional specification of a domain in the
host-side address of all pci passthrough commands (by simply
prepending it to the bus:slot.function format, as
"dddd:bb:ss.f"). Since machines with multiple PCI domains are very
rare, this never came up in practice, so libvirt was never updated to
support it.
This patch takes the first step to supporting specification of a non-0
domain in the host-side address of PCI devices being assigned to a
domain, by adding a capability bit to indicate support
"QEMU_CAPS_HOST_PCI_MULTIDOMAIN", and detect it. Since this support
was added in a version prior to the minimum version required for
QMP-style capabilities detection, the capability is always enabled for
any qemu that uses QMP for capabilities detection. For older qemus,
the only clue that a domain can be specified in the host pci address
is the presence of the string "[seg:]" in the help string for
-pcidevice. (Ironically, libvirt will not be modified to support
specification of domain for -pcidevice, since any qemu new enough for
us to care about also supports "-device pci-assign" or "-device
vfio-pci", which are greatly preferred).
The test case average timing code has not been used by any test
case ever. Delete it to remove complexity.

Add an attribute named 'removable' to the 'target' element of disks,
which controls the removable flag. For instance, on a Linux guest it
controls the value of /sys/block/$dev/removable. This option is only
valid for USB disks (i.e. bus='usb'), and its default value is 'off',
which is the same behaviour as before.
To achieve this, 'removable=on' (or 'off') is appended to the '-device
usb-storage' parameter sent to qemu when adding a USB disk via
'-disk'. A capability flag QEMU_CAPS_USB_STORAGE_REMOVABLE was added
to keep track if this option is supported by the qemu version used.
