Some of the typed parameter APIs are exported publicly, but the
implementation was intermixed with private functions. Introduce
virtypedparam-public.c, move all public API functions there and purge
the comments stating that some functions are public.

This will decrease the likelihood of messing up the expectations as well

ada268012a build: force a UTF-8 locale for python
Python3 versions less than 3.7 have very unhelpful handling
of the C locale where they assume data is 7-bit only. This
violates POSIX which requires the C locale to be 8-bit clean.
Python3 >= 3.7 now assumes that the C locale is always UTF-8.

Set env variables to force LC_CTYPE to en_US.UTF-8 so that
we get UTF-8 handling on all python versions. Note we do
not use C.UTF-8 since not all C libraries support that.

926b7b6e6c docs: remove devhelp API docs
We currently generate two completely separate API references for the
libvirt public API. One at 'docs/html/' and one at 'docs/devhelp/'.
Both are published on the website, but we only link to content in
the 'docs/html/' pages.

Both are installed in the libvirt-docs sub-RPM, with a full copy
of the website including 'docs/html/' in /usr/share/docs/libvirt-docs,
while the 'docs/devhelp/' content goes to /usr/share/gtk-doc/. The
latter was broken for years until:

    docs: Introduce $(devhelphtml_generated)

    Our XSLT magic generates one Devhelp-compatible HTML file
    per documentation module, but so far we have only shipped
    and installed documentation for virterror.

    Now that we have $(modules), however, we can generate the
    list of files the same way we do for regular documentation
    and make sure we always ship and install everything.

That this bug went unnoticed for so long is a sign of how few
people are using the devhelp docs. The only commits to the devhelp
code since it was first introduced have been fixing various build
problems that hit.

The only obvious difference between the two sets of docs is the CSS
styling in use. Overall devhelp does not look compelling enough to
justify having two duplicated sets of API docs. Eliminating it will
reduce the amount of XSL code we are carrying in the tree which is
an attractive benefit.

0d44788fc3 backup: Introduce virDomainCheckpoint APIs
Introduce a bunch of new public APIs related to backup checkpoints.
Checkpoints are modeled heavily after virDomainSnapshotPtr (both
represent a point in time of the guest), although a snapshot exists
with the intent of rolling back to that state, while a checkpoint
exists to make it possible to create an incremental backup at a later
time.  We may have a future hypervisor that can completely manage
checkpoints without libvirt metadata, but the first two planned
hypervisors (qemu and test) both always use libvirt for tracking
metadata relations between checkpoints, so for now, I've deferred
the counterpart of virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata for a separate
API addition at a later date if there is ever a need for it.

Note that until we allow snapshots and checkpoints to exist
simultaneously on the same domain (although the actual prevention of
this will be in a separate patch for the sake of an easier revert down
the road), that it is not possible to branch out to create more than
one checkpoint child to a given parent, although it may become
possible later when we revert to a snapshot that coincides with a
checkpoint.  This also means that for now, the decision of which
checkpoint becomes the parent of a newly created one is the only
checkpoint with no child (so while there are APIs for dealing with a
current snapshot, we do not need those for checkpoints).  We may end
up exposing a notion of a current checkpoint later, but it's easier to
add stuff when proven needed than to blindly support it now and wish
we hadn't exposed it.

The following map shows the API relations to snapshots, with new APIs
on the right:

Operate on a domain object to create/redefine a child:
virDomainSnapshotCreateXML          virDomainCheckpointCreateXML

Operate on a child object for lifetime management:
virDomainSnapshotDelete             virDomainCheckpointDelete
virDomainSnapshotFree               virDomainCheckpointFree
virDomainSnapshotRef                virDomainCheckpointRef

Operate on a child object to learn more about it:
virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc         virDomainCheckpointGetXMLDesc
virDomainSnapshotGetConnect         virDomainCheckpointGetConnect
virDomainSnapshotGetDomain          virDomainCheckpointGetDomain
virDomainSnapshotGetName            virDomainCheckpiontGetName
virDomainSnapshotGetParent          virDomainCheckpiontGetParent
virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata        (deferred for later)
virDomainSnapshotIsCurrent          (no counterpart, see note above)

Operate on a domain object to list all children:
virDomainSnapshotNum                (no counterparts, these are the old
virDomainSnapshotListNames           racy interfaces)
virDomainSnapshotListAllSnapshots   virDomainListAllCheckpoints

Operate on a child object to list descendents:
virDomainSnapshotNumChildren        (no counterparts, these are the old
virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames   racy interfaces)
virDomainSnapshotListAllChildren    virDomainCheckpointListAllChildren

Operate on a domain to locate a particular child:
virDomainSnapshotLookupByName       virDomainCheckpointLookupByName
virDomainSnapshotCurrent            (no counterpart, see note above)
virDomainHasCurrentSnapshot         (no counterpart, old racy interface)

Operate on a snapshot to roll back to earlier state:
virDomainSnapshotRevert             (no counterpart, instead checkpoints
                                     are used in incremental backups via
				     XML to virDomainBackupBegin)

6716c997f6 docs: Install documentation under $(docdir)
At the moment we allow the user to specify exactly where
they want the HTML documentation to be installed with an
extreme level of precision through the --with-html-dir and
--with-html-subdir configure options.

Most of the time, of course, the user will stick with the
default, that is $(datadir)/doc/$(PACKAGE)-$(VERSION)/html.

So close to $(docdir)! Including the version number in
the path, specifically, seems entirely unnecessary since
different releases of libvirt are not going to be able to
coexist on the same system anyway.

Drop all these custom flexibilty for flexibilty's sake

$(docdir).

be36ea4b52 NEWS: Improve building pipeline
Currently, building the NEWS file involves using a XSLT stylesheet
to extract information from the same HTML file that's used on the
libvirt website.

The process works, but it's quite fiddly in that it requires the
source HTML to be formatted in a very precise way, and a single
missing newline can mess up the resulting plain text considerably.

Moreover, the XSLT stylesheet itself encodes a lot of the details
of converting to plain text in a way that's not necessarily easy
to understand, tweak or fix.

To improve the process, move all existing entries to a new XML
file that contains exactly the information we care about in a
simple structured format, and start generating both the HTML and
plain text versions of the release notes using XSLT stylesheets
that can now afford to be almost trivial.

d195cffa2e docs: apibuild: Fix VPATH build
libvirt-common.h is generated into builddir/include/libvirt. apibuild.py
only operated on srcdir/inlcude/libvirt. With VPATH build
srcdir/docs/libvirt-libvirt-common.html would not get generated and make
RPM failed.

9928387473 api: Generate docs for libvirt-common.h
Since commit f5d9c5d00c moved the virTypedParam stuff into
libvirt-common we did not generate any docs for them and neither did we
populate them into libvirt-api.xml. This broke the sanity check in
libvirt python. Fix it by generating docs for libvirt-common.h too.

8ed7c3a2cf docs: Don't leave any documentation behind
Our uninstall script is not exact counterpart of install one.
Therefore we are leaving couple of files behind. This should not
happen.
