In a constrained CI environment, where it is intentional that attempts
to write outside the current directory will fail, virsh-snapshot was
failing:
@@ -1,2 +1,3 @@
error: invalid argument: parent s3 for snapshot s2 not found
error: marker
+error: Failed to create '/home/travis/.cache/libvirt/virsh': Permission denied
FAIL virsh-snapshot (exit status: 1)
But we've already solved the problem in virsh-uriprecedence: tell
virsh to use XDG locations pointing to somewhere we can write rather
than its default of falling back to $HOME with the test being at risk
of breaking due to the user's environment and/or unacceptably altering
the user's normal cache. Hoist that solution into test-lib.sh, so
that all scripts can use it as needed. While at it, fix a latent typo
where XDG_RUNTIME_HOME was set to a literal relative directory name
"XDG_CACHE_HOME" (the typo did not affect virsh-uriprecedence, but
could matter to other clients).

Had this been in place earlier, I would have avoided the bugs in
commit 0baf6945 and 55c2ab3e. Writing the test required me to extend
the power of virsh - creating enough snapshots to cause fanout
requires enough input in a single session that adding comments and
markers makes it easier to check that output is correct. It's still a
bit odd that with test:///default, reverting to a snapshot changes the
domain from running to paused (possibly a bug in how the test driver
copied from the qemu driver) - but the important part is that the test
is reproducible, and any future tweaks we make to snapshot code have
less chance of breaking successful command sequences.
