Historically we have used a bare lxc:/// URI for connecting to LXC. This
is different from our practice with QEMU, UML, Parallels, Libxl, BHyve
and VirtualBox drivers, which all use a path of '/system' or '/session'
or both.
By making LXC allow '/system', we have fully standardized on the use of
either '/system' or '/session' for all the stateful drivers that run
inside libvirtd.
Support for lxc:/// is of course maintained for back-compat.

Historically we have used a bare xen:/// URI for connecting to the
legacy Xen driver. The new libxl Xen driver follows the new practice
of allowing '/system' as a path, as well as bare '/' for compat with
the old Xen driver.
This documents xen:///system as the preferred format for Xen, leaving
xen:/// as an undocumented feature just for back-compat.

For the virsh pool-{define|create}-as command, let's allow using
--secret-uuid on the command line as an alternative to --secret-usage
(added for commit id '8932580'), but ensure that they are mutually
exclusive.
So we refer to the terms 'persistent' and 'transient' across the whole
man page, without describing it further, but more importantly, how the
create command affects it, i.e. explicitly stating that domain created
via the 'create' command are going to be transient or persistent,
depending on whether there is an existing persistent domain with a
matching <name> and <uuid>, in which case it will remain persistent, but
will run using a one-time configuration, otherwise it's going to be
transient and will vanish once destroyed.

Commit 24d4a0a1f removed the non-existent "dying" state from the list
of possible domain states given in the virsh manpage, but didn't
correct the count of states from 8 down to 7. This patch fixes that
mismatch by completely removing any reference to the exact number of
states (thus preventing a potential future mismatch), while wording
the sentence in a more readable/truthful manner.
Now that the node_device driver is aware of CCW devices, let's hook up
virsh so that we can filter them properly.

virt-install and virt-manager both default to explicitly setting
"io='native'" in the disk "driver" tag. virsh, however, does not and also
does not provide an option to specify that setting at all. As a result,
disks use a different IO mechanism (the default, "threads") when attached
post-setup using virsh. Adding this option allows users to keep disk
performance consistent for disks attached at install, and those attached
afterward.

size of the devices attached in a domain. Usually, this sizes are very big

virsh # domblkinfo my_domain hda
Capacity: 21474836480
Allocation: 14875545600
Physical: 21474836480

Clean up the virsh man page description for --pool-create-as in order
to better describe how the various arguments are used when creating
(or defining) a logical pool.
Also modify the storage pool XML parsing algorithm to check for the
mismatched "name" and "source-name".
Move the --print-xml to the end of the qualifiers since it's not
properly positionally situated for both --pool-create-as and --pool-define-as
and could be miscontrued as being the 3rd positional argument.
Management tools may want to check whether the threshold is still set if
they missed an event. Add the data to the bulk stats API where they can
also query the current backing size at the same time.
