The reboot() syscall is allowed by new kernels for LXC containers.
The LXC controller can detect whether a reboot was requested
(instead of a normal shutdown) by looking at the "init" process
exit status. If a reboot was triggered, the exit status will
record SIGHUP as the kill reason.
The LXC controller has cleared all its capabilities, and the
veth network devices will no longer exist at this time. Thus
it cannot restart the container init process itself. Instead
it emits an event which is picked up by the LXC driver in
libvirtd. This will then re-create the container, using the
same configuration as it was previously running with (ie it
will not activate 'newDef').

This defines a new RPC protocol to be used between the LXC
controller and the libvirtd LXC driver. There is only a
single RPC message defined thus far, an asynchronous "EXIT"
event that is emitted just before the LXC controller process
exits. This provides the LXC driver with details about how
the container shutdown - normally, or abnormally (crashed),
thus allowing the driver to emit better libvirt events.
Emitting the event in the LXC controller requires a few
little tricks with the RPC service. Simply calling the
virNetServiceClientSendMessage does not work, since this
merely queues the message for asynchronous processing.
In addition the main event loop is no longer running at
the point the event is emitted, so no I/O is processed.
Thus after invoking virNetServiceClientSendMessage it is
necessary to mark the client as being in "delayed close"
mode. Then the event loop is run again, until the client
completes its close - this happens only after the queued
message has been fully transmitted. The final complexity
is that it is not safe to run virNetServerQuit() from the
client close callback, since that is invoked from a
context where the server is locked. Thus a zero-second
timer is used to trigger shutdown of the event loop,
causing the controller to finally exit.
* src/Makefile.am: Add rules for generating RPC protocol
files and dispatch methods
* src/lxc/lxc_controller.c: Emit an RPC event immediately
before exiting
* src/lxc/lxc_domain.h: Record the shutdown reason
given by the controller
* src/lxc/lxc_monitor.c, src/lxc/lxc_monitor.h: Register
RPC program and event handler. Add callback to let
driver receive EXIT event.
* src/lxc/lxc_process.c: Use monitor exit event to decide
what kind of domain event to emit
* src/lxc/lxc_protocol.x: Define wire protocol for LXC
controller monitor.

Move the code that handles the LXC monitor out of the
lxc_process.c file and into lxc_monitor.{c,h}

Update the LXC driver to use the virNetClient APIs for
connecting to the libvirt_lxc monitor, instead of the
low-level socket APIs. This is a step towards running
a full RPC protocol with libvirt_lxc

For consistency all the APIs in the lxc_domain.c file should
have a virLXCDomain prefix in their name
