vcpu 0 must be always enabled and non-hotpluggable, thus you can't
modify it using the vcpu hotplug APIs. Disallow it so that users can't
create invalid configurations.

The default conf files, for example libvirtd.conf, virtlockd.conf, and
virtlogd.conf, should be located under the directory "/etc/libvirt" when
root as root, rather than "/etc". When run as non-root, the configuration
files should be located under "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/libvirt/", rather than
"XDG_CONFIG_HOME".

When one has a non-blocking stream and aborts or finishes it without
removing the callback, any event loop invocation will trigger that
callback, but it cannot be removed any more. We cannot remove the
callback automatically from virStream{Abort,Finish} functions due to
forward-compatibility. So let's at least document this behaviour,
because it is not easy to find out the reason for.

Add support for vgaconf driver configuration. In domain xml it looks like
this:
<video>
<driver vgaconf='io|on|off'>
<model .../>
</video>
It was added with bhyve gop video in mind to allow users control how the
video device is exposed to the guest, specifically, how VGA I/O is
handled.
One can refer to the bhyve manual page to get more detailed description
of the possible VGA configuration options:
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bhyve&manpath=FreeBSD+12-current
The relevant part could be found using the 'vgaconf' keyword.
Also, add some tests for this new feature.

Despite being a generated file, HACKING has been tracked in
the git repository along with actual source files. As far as
I'm aware, it's the only generated file for which that happens.
Times and times again, people[1] have committed changes to
the source file without refreshing the generated copy at the
same time.
The rationale for tracking the generated file is to help out
people who just cloned the git repository looking to contribue;
however, README-hacking already contains enough information to
get perspective contributors to a place where they can simply
look at docs/hacking.html instead.

If a remote call fails during event registration (more than likely from
a network failure or remote libvirtd restart timed just right), then when
calling the virObjectEventStateDeregisterID we don't want to call the
registered @freecb function because that breaks our contract that we
would only call it after succesfully returning. If the @freecb routine
were called, it could result in a double free from properly coded
applications that free their opaque data on failure to register, as seen
in the following details:
Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted.
#0 0x00007fc45cba15d7 in raise
#1 0x00007fc45cba2cc8 in abort
#2 0x00007fc45cbe12f7 in __libc_message

The double dereference of 'pyobj_cbData' is triggered in the following way:
(1) libvirt_virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny is invoked.
(2) the event is successfully added to the event callback list
(virDomainEventStateRegisterClient in
remoteConnectDomainEventRegisterAny returns 1 which means ok).
(3) when function remoteConnectDomainEventRegisterAny is hit,
network connection disconnected coincidently (or libvirtd is
restarted) in the context of function 'call' then the connection
is lost and the function 'call' failed, the branch
virObjectEventStateDeregisterID is therefore taken.
(4) 'pyobj_conn' is dereferenced the 1st time in
libvirt_virConnectDomainEventFreeFunc.
(5) 'pyobj_cbData' (refered to pyobj_conn) is dereferenced the
2nd time in libvirt_virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny.
(6) the double free error is triggered.
Resolve this by adding a @doFreeCb boolean in order to avoid calling the
freeCb in virObjectEventStateDeregisterID for any remote call failure in
a remoteConnect*EventRegister* API. For remoteConnect*EventDeregister* calls,
the passed value would be true indicating they should run the freecb if it
exists; whereas, it's false for the remote call failure path.
Patch based on the investigation and initial patch posted by

The function to check if -chardev is supported by QEMU was written a
long time ago, where adding chardevs did not make sense on the fixed ARM
platforms. Since then, we now have a general purpose virt platform,
which should support plugging in any device over PCIe which is supported
in a similar fashion on x86.

As it turns out the volume create, build, and refresh path was not peeking
at the meta data, so immediately after a create operation the value displayed
for capacity was still incorrect. However, if a pool refresh was done the
correct value was fetched as a result of a meta data peek.
The reason is it seems historically if the file type is RAW then peeking
at the file just took the physical value for the capacity. However, since
we know if it's an encrypted file, then peeking at the meta data will be
required in order to get a true capacity value.
So check for encryption in the source and if present, use the meta data
in order to fill in the capacity value and set the payload_offset.
Similarly to commit 5da28cc306 this check
actually does not make sense since duplicate WWNs are used e.g. when
multipathing disks.
This reverts commit 780fe4e4ba.

When fetching stats for a vhost-user type of interface, we run
couple of ovs-vsctl commands and parse their output. However, not
all stats exist at all times, for instance "rx_dropped" or
"tx_errors" can be missing. Thing is, we ask for a bulk of
statistics and if one of them is missing an error is reported
instead of returning the rest. Since we ignore errors, we fail to
set statistics. Fix this by asking for each piece alone.

Our commit e13e8808f9 was way too generic. Currently, virtlogd is
used only for chardevs type of file and nothing else. True, we
must not relabel the path in this case, but we have to in all
other cases. For instance, if you want to have a physical console
attached to your guest:
<console type='dev'>
<source path='/dev/ttyS0'/>
<target type='virtio' port='1'/>
</console>
Starting such domain fails because qemu doesn't have access to
/dev/ttyS0 because we haven't relabelled the path.

Even though we got both the original CPU (used for starting a domain)
and the updated version (the CPU really provided by QEMU) during
incoming migration, restore, or snapshot revert, we still need to update
the CPU according to the data we got from the freshly started QEMU.
Otherwise we don't know whether the CPU we got from QEMU matches the one
before migration. We just need to keep the original CPU in
priv->origCPU.

Commit 7456c4f5f introduced a regression by not reloading the backing
chain of a disk after snapshot. The regression was caused as
src->relPath was not set and thus the block commit code could not
determine the relative path.

VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_REUSE_EXT and store it in the correct place
when a snapshot is successfully completed.
