The phyp driver was added in 2009 and does not appear to have had any
real feature change since 2011. There's virtually no evidence online
of users actually using it. IMO it's time to kill it.

The Perl bindings for libvirt use the test driver for unit tests. This
tries to load the cpu_map/index.xml file, and when run from an
uninstalled build will fail.
The problem is that virFileActivateDirOverride is called by our various
binaries like libvirtd, virsh, but is not called when a 3rd party app
uses libvirt.so
To deal with this we allow the LIBVIRT_DIR_OVERRIDE=1 env variable to be
set and make virInitialize look for this. The 'run' script will set it,
so now build using this script to run against an uninstalled tree we
will correctly resolve files to the source tree.

Now that 100% of libvirt code is forbidden in a SUID environment,
we no longer need to worry about whether env variables are
trustworthy or not. The virt-login-shell setuid program, which
does not link to any libvirt code, will purge all environment
variables, except $TERM, before invoking the virt-login-shell-helper
program which uses libvirt.

Introduce a bunch of new virsh commands for managing checkpoints in
isolation. More commands are needed for performing incremental
backups, but these commands were easy to implement by modeling heavily
after virsh-snapshot.c. There is no need for checkpoint-revert or
checkpoint-current since those snapshot APIs have no checkpoint
counterpart. Similarly, it is not necessary to change which
checkpoint is current when redefining from XML, since until we
integrate checkpoints with snapshots, there is only a linear chain
(and you can deduce the current checkpoint by instead using
'checkpoint-list --leaves'). Other aspects of checkpoint-list are
also a bit simpler than the snapshot counterpart, in part because we
don't have to cater to back-compat to older API.
Upcoming patches will test these interfaces once the test driver
supports checkpoints.

In the future, this function is going to be called from
vshReadlineParse() to provide parsed input for completer
callbacks. The idea is to allow the callbacks to provide more
specific data. For instance, for the following input:
virsh # domifaddr --domain fedora --interface <TAB><TAB>
the --interface completer callback is going to be called. Now, it
is more user friendly if the completer offers only those
interfaces found in 'fedora' domain. But in order to do that it
needs to be able to retrieve partially parsed result.

Due to how the processing for authentication using polkit works, the
virshConnect code must first "attempt" an virConnectOpenAuth and then
check for a "special" return error code VIR_ERR_AUTH_UNAVAILABLE in
order to attempt to "retry" the authentication after performing a creation
of a pkttyagent to handle the challenge/response for the client.
However, if pkttyagent creation is not possible for the authentication
being attempted (such as perhaps a "qemu+ssh://someuser@localhost/system"),
then the same failure pattern would be returned and another attempt to
create a pkttyagent would be done. This would continue "forever" until
someone forced quit (e.g. ctrl-c) from virsh as the 'authfail' was not
incremented when creating the pkttyagent.
So add a 'agentCreated' boolean to track if we've attempted to create the
agent at least once and force a failure if that creation returned the same
error pattern.
This resolves a possible never ending loop and will generate an error:
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: authentication unavailable: no polkit agent available to authenticate action 'org.libvirt.unix.manage'
NB: If the authentication was for a sufficiently privileged client, such as
qemu+ssh://root@localhost/system, then the remoteDispatchAuthList "allows"
the authentication to use libvirt since @callerUid would be 0.
There are several functions in virshInit which can fail, especially
when running win32 builds under WINE. Currently virsh just exits
without reporting what error happened.

Since commit 834c5720 which extracted the generic functionality out of virsh
and made it available for other clients like virt-admin to make use of it, it
also introduced a bug when it renamed the original VIRSH_ environment variables
to VSH_ variables. Virt-admin of course suffers from the same bug, so this
patch modifies the generic module vsh.c to construct the correct name for
environment variables of each client from information it has.

A new hidden command for virsh that will iterate over
all command groups and commands and print help for every single one.
This involves running vshCmddefOptParse so we can get an error if
one of the command's option structure is invalid.
The man page says: "(Re)-Connect to the hypervisor. When the shell is
first started, this is automatically run with the URI parameter
requested by the "-c" option on the command line." However, if you run:
virsh -c 'test://default' 'connect; uri'
the output will not be 'test://default'. That's because the 'connect'
command does not care about any virsh-only related settings and if it is
run without parameters, it connects with @uri == NULL. Not only that
doesn't comply to what the man page describes, but it also doesn't make
sense. It also means you aren't able to reconnect to whatever you are
connected currently.
So let's fix that in both virsh and virt-admin add a test case for it.

Seems sensible IMO to just not clear out the old connection state
until the new virConnectOpen succeeds.

Currently, if a connection URI was specified on the command line by the
'-c' switch, virsh connects to it, but after connecting overrides its
value with the one it tries to obtain from the VIRSH_DEFAULT_CONNECT_URI
environment variable.
This makes virsh connecting to the wrong URI if it disconnects from the
hypervisor and then tries to reconnect, and also leaks the original connname.
Fix by calling virGetEnvBlockSUID() before virshParseArgv().

When the login session doesn't have an ssh -X type display agent in
order for libvirtd to run the polkit session authentication, attempts
to run 'virsh -c qemu:///system list' from an unauthorized user (or one
that isn't part of the libvirt /etc/group) will fail with the following
error from libvirtd:
error: authentication unavailable: no polkit agent available to
authenticate action 'org.libvirt.unix.manage'
In order to handle the local authentication, we will use the new
virPolkitAgentCreate API in order to create a text based authentication
agent for our non readonly session to authenticate with.
The new code will execute in a loop allowing 5 failures to authenticate
before failing out.
With this patch in place, the following occurs:
$ virsh -c qemu:///system list
==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.libvirt.unix.manage ===
System policy prevents management of local virtualized systems
Authenticating as: Some User (SUser)
Password:

won't get any new events from the closed connection.

Commmit df8192aa introduced admin related rename and some minor
(caused by automated approach, aka sed) and some more severe isues along with
it. First reason to revert is the inconsistency with libvirt library.
Although we deal with the daemon directly rather than with a specific
hypervisor, we still do have a connection. That being said, contributors might
get under the impression that AdmDaemonNew would spawn/start a new daemon
(since it's admin API, why not...), or AdmDaemonClose would do the exact
opposite or they might expect DaemonIsAlive report overall status of the daemon
which definitely isn't the case.
The second reason to revert this patch is renaming virt-admin client. The
client tool does not necessarily have to reflect the names of the API's it's
using in his internals. An example would be 's/vshAdmConnect/vshAdmDaemon'
where noone can be certain of what the latter function really does. The former
is quite expressive about some connection magic it performs, but the latter does
not say anything, especially when vshAdmReconnect and vshAdmDisconnect were
left untouched.
virAdmConnect was named after virConnect, but after some discussions,
most of the APIs called will be working with remote daemon and starting
them virAdmDaemon will make more sense. Only possibly controversal name
is CloseCallback (de)registration, and connecting to the daemon (which
will still be Open/Close), but even this makes sense if one thinks about
the daemon being opened and closed, e.g. as file, etc.
This way all the APIs working with the daemon will start with
virAdmDaemon prefix, they will accept virAdmDaemonPtr as first parameter
and that will better suit with other namings as well (virDomain*,
virAdmServer*, etc.).
Because in virt-admin, the connection name does not refer to a struct
that would have a connect in its name, also adjust 'connname' in
clients. And because it is not used anywhere in the vsh code, move it
from there into each client.
