afb96301f3 security: Driver 'none' cannot create confined guests
In case the caller specifies that confined guests are required but the
security driver turns out to be 'none', we should return an error since
this driver clearly cannot meet that requirement.  As a result of this
error, libvirtd fails to start when the host admin explicitly sets
confined guests are required but there is no security driver available.

Since security driver 'none' cannot create confined guests, we override
default confined setting so that hypervisor drivers do not thing they
should create confined guests.

b170eb99f5 Add two new security label types
Curently security labels can be of type 'dynamic' or 'static'.
If no security label is given, then 'dynamic' is assumed. The
current code takes advantage of this default, and avoids even
saving <seclabel> elements with type='dynamic' to disk. This
means if you temporarily change security driver, the guests
can all still start.

With the introduction of sVirt to LXC though, there needs to be
a new default of 'none' to allow unconfined LXC containers.

This patch introduces two new security label types

 - default:  the host configuration decides whether to run the
             guest with type 'none' or 'dynamic' at guest start
 - none:     the guest will run unconfined by security policy

The 'none' label type will obviously be undesirable for some
deployments, so a new qemu.conf option allows a host admin to
mandate confined guests. It is also possible to turn off default
confinement

  security_default_confined = 1|0  (default == 1)
  security_require_confined = 1|0  (default == 0)

d6623003c6 Refactor the security drivers to simplify usage
The current security driver usage requires horrible code like

    if (driver->securityDriver &&
        driver->securityDriver->domainSetSecurityHostdevLabel &&
        driver->securityDriver->domainSetSecurityHostdevLabel(driver->securityDriver,
                                                              vm, hostdev) < 0)

This pair of checks for NULL clutters up the code, making the driver
calls 2 lines longer than they really need to be. The goal of the
patchset is to change the calling convention to simply

  if (virSecurityManagerSetHostdevLabel(driver->securityDriver,
                                        vm, hostdev) < 0)

The first check for 'driver->securityDriver' being NULL is removed
by introducing a 'no op' security driver that will always be present
if no real driver is enabled. This guarentees driver->securityDriver
!= NULL.

The second check for 'driver->securityDriver->domainSetSecurityHostdevLabel'
being non-NULL is hidden in a new abstraction called virSecurityManager.
This separates the driver callbacks, from main internal API. The addition
of a virSecurityManager object, that is separate from the virSecurityDriver
struct also allows for security drivers to carry state / configuration
information directly. Thus the DAC/Stack drivers from src/qemu which
used to pull config from 'struct qemud_driver' can now be moved into
the 'src/security' directory and store their config directly.

  use new virSecurityManager APIs

68719c4bdd Disable all disk probing in QEMU driver & add config option to re-enable
Disk format probing is now disabled by default. A new config
option in /etc/qemu/qemu.conf will re-enable it for existing
deployments where this causes trouble
