This patch makes it possible to manually specify which VFIO variant
driver to use for PCI hostdev device assignment, so that, e.g. you
could force use of a VFIO "variant" driver, with e.g.
<driver model='mlx5_vfio_pci'/>
or alternately to force use of the generic vfio-pci driver with
<driver model='vfio-pci'/>
when libvirt would have normally (after applying a subsequent patch)
found a "better match" for a device in the active kernel's
modules.alias file. (The main potential use of this manual override
would probably be to work around a bug in a new VFIO variant driver by
temporarily not using that driver).

The long-deprecated use of <driver name='vfio|xen|kvm'/> in domain xml
for <hostdev> devices was only ever necessary during the period when
libvirt (and the Linux kernel) supported both VFIO and "legacy KVM"
styles of hostdev device assignment for QEMU. This became pointless
many years ago when legacy KVM device assignment was removed from the
kernel, and support for that style of device assignment was completely
disabled in the libvirt source in 2019 (commit
v5.6.0-316-g2e7225ea8c).
Nevertheless, there were instances of <driver name='vfio'/> in the
unit test data that were then (unnecessarily) propagated to several
more tests over the years. This patch cleans out those unnecessary
explicit settings of driver name='vfio' in all QEMU unit test data,
proving that the attribute is no longer (externally) needed. (A later
patch which adds a 2nd attribute to the <driver> element will include
a test case that explicitly exercises the driver name attribute).

QEMU gained support for PipeWire audio backend (see QEMU commit

the same as pulseaudio's, except for PA's server name. Therefore,
a lot of code is copied over from pulseadio and fixed by

There's one ley difference to PA though: pipewire daemon is

Currently, passing -Dtests=disabled only disables a subset of
tests: those that are written in C and thus require compilation.
Other tests, such as the syntax-check ones and those that are
implemented as scripts, are always enabled.
There's a potentially dangerous consequence of this behavior:
when tests are disabled, 'meson test' will succeed as if they
had been enabled. No indication of this will be shown, so the
user will likely make the reasonable assumption that everything
is fine when in fact the significantly reduced coverage might
be hiding failures.
To solve this issues, disable *all* tests when asked to do so,
and inject an intentionally failing test to ensure that 'meson
test' doesn't succeed.

A test case can be part of a test suite (just like we already
have 'syntax-check'). This then allows developers to run only a
subset of tests. For instance - when using valgrind test setup
(`meson test -C _build/ --setup valgrind`) it makes zero sense to
run syntax-check tests or other script based tests (e.g.
check-augeas-*, check-remote_protocol, etc.). What does makes
sense is to run compiled binaries.
Strictly speaking, reaching that goal is as trivial as annotating
only those compiled tests (declared in tests/meson.build) and
running them selectively:
meson test -C _build/ --setup valgrind --suite $TAG
But it may be also desirable to run test scripts separately.
Therefore, introduce two new tags: 'bin' for compiled tests, and
'script' for script based tests and annotate each test()
accordingly.

Both virtio-mem and virtio-pmem devices have '.memaddr' attribute

the right thing and computes addresses automatically on startup.
But soon, we will need to record this address as it is part of
guest ABI. And also, there might be some users that want to
control this value. Now, we are in a bit of a pickle, because
both these device types already have a PCI address, therefore we
can't just use <address/> blindly. But what we can do, is
introduce <address/> under the <target/> element. This is also
more conceptual, as knobs under <target/> control guest visible
config of memory device (and .memaddr surely falls into that
category).
NB, SgxEPCDeviceInfo struct in QMP definition also has .memaddr

The QEMU interface is still in a state of flux, and KVM support
has been pulled shortly after having been merged. Let's not
commit to a stable interface in libvirt just yet.

The type='pty' attribute in the <serial> element causes a Pseudo TTY to be
allocated on the host side via "/dev/ptmx", which is meant to be
interacted with via "virsh console" or similar.
That's not how a firmware log is typically viewed or saved. Replace
type='pty' with type='file', and also provide an example <source> element
(with the pathname of the logfile), similarly to how the <serial> example
just above provides a <source> element too.

The <serial> opening tag is paired with the </console> closing tag; that's
a mismatch. The question is then whether to modify the former to
<console>, or the latter to </serial>.
Per section "Relationship between serial ports and consoles", <serial> is
used for emulated (not paravirt) consoles, and it's the type that's
suitable for early debug output (such as from firmware). Thus, change
</console> to </serial>.

Add migrate options: --compression-zlib-level
--compression-zstd-level
These options are used to set compress level for "zlib"
or "zstd" during parallel migration if the compress method
is specified.

Wrap the auto-generated pages (API ref and hvsupport.html) in the proper
top level element similarly to what the pages generated from RST have to
remove the extra case when templating our web.

Since we need to generate API docs for multiple input files the index
page is not useful for us and was replaced by a manual one. Drop the XSL

The auto-generated index contains only references to one run of the
generator but we in total run it 4 times missing the admin, lxc, and
qemu specific apis.
Rewrite it manually so that we can drop the generator for it.

The only remaining page was 'hvsupport.html' which is generated by
'scripts/hvsupport.py'. The script already has all the data to generate
the table of contents internally so we can remove the whole complicated
template.

The only special bit about the 'acl' page was the inclusion of the
objects and permissions tables. We can do that by the '.. raw::'
directive.
One reference from 'aclpolkit.rst' needed to be updated to go with the
new header anchor naming.

Use same font size both for <h1> and <h2> used as the column titles as

When the pages were converted to rST it required changes to how the
panels are created. This change was not reproduced in the specific media
override for narrow displays and thus made those pages unusable.
Note that two lines per document are needed as some rst2html5 versions
format a <div class='section'> and others do a <section> element
instead.
