Introduced only a couple of commits ago (in
v10.5.0-84-g90e50e67c6) the pstore device acts as a nonvolatile
storage, where guest kernel can store information about crashes.
This device, however, expects a file in the host from which the
crash data is read. So far, we expected users to provide a path,
but we can autogenerate one if missing. Just put it next to
per-domain's NVRAM stores.

The aim of pstore device is to provide a bit of NVRAM storage for
guest kernel to record oops/panic logs just before the it
crashes. Typical usage includes usage in combination with a
watchdog so that the logs can be inspected after the watchdog
rebooted the machine. While Linux kernel (and possibly Windows
too) support many backends, in QEMU there's just 'acpi-erst'
device so stick with that for now. The device must be attached to
a PCI bus and needs two additional values (well, corresponding
memory-backend-file needs them): size and path. Despite using
memory-backend-file this does NOT add any additional RAM to the
guest and thus I've decided to expose it as another device type
instead of memory model.

There are PCI devices with pretty large non-prefetchable memory,
for instance:
Memory at 9d800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8M]
Memory at a6800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
For cold plugged devices this is not a problem, because firmware
sets PCI controllers in a way that make devices behind them just
work. Problem arises if such PCI device is to be hot plugged.
Since the PCI device wasn't present at cold boot, firmware could
not take it into calculations and the amount of reserved memory
is not sufficient.
Introduce a know that allows users overriding value computed by
FW and thus allow hot plug of such PCI devices.

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
usually on per user basis (just like our qemu:///session).

Both virtio-mem and virtio-pmem devices have '.memaddr' attribute
which controls the address where they are mapped in the guest
memory. Ideally, users do not need to specify this as QEMU does
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
attribute, but because of the way we build cmd line there's no
(easy) way to set the attribute. So ignore that for now.
