The virConnectPtr is no longer required for error reporting since
that is recorded in a thread local. Remove use of virConnectPtr
from all APIs in node_device_conf.{h,c} and update all callers to
match
This invalid free results in heap corruption. Some symptoms I saw
because of this were libvirtd crashing and virt-manager hanging
while trying to enumerate devices.
* src/node_device/node_device_driver.c (update_driver_name): The
previous code would write one byte beyond the end of the 4KiB
stack buffer when presented with a symlink value of exactly that
length (very unlikely). Remove the automatic buffer and use
virFileResolveLink in place of readlink. Suggested by Daniel Veillard.
I realized that I inadvertently added a member to the def struct to
contain each device's sysfs path when there was an existing member in the
dev struct for "OS specific path to device metadat, eg sysfs" Since the
udev backend needs to record the sysfs path while it's in the process of
creating the device, before the dev struct gets allocated, I chose to
remove the member from the dev struct.

src/node_device/node_device_driver.c src/node_device/node_device_hal.c
src/node_device/node_device_udev.c: remove devicePath from the
structure and use def->sysfs_path instead
* configure.in src/Makefile.am: remove the configuration check and
build instructions
* src/node_device/node_device_devkit.c: removed the module
* src/node_device/node_device_driver.c src/node_device/node_device_driver.h:
removed references to the old backend
* configure.in: add new --with-udev, disabled by default, and requiring
libudev > 145
* src/node_device/node_device_udev.c src/node_device/node_device_udev.h:
the new node device backend
* src/node_device/node_device_linux_sysfs.c: moved node_device_hal_linux.c
to a better file name
* src/conf/node_device_conf.c src/conf/node_device_conf.h: add a couple
of fields in node device definitions, and an API to look them up,
remove a couple of unused fields from previous patch.
* src/node_device/node_device_driver.c src/node_device/node_device_driver.h:
plug the new driver
* po/POTFILES.in src/Makefile.am src/libvirt_private.syms: add the new
files and symbols
* src/util/util.h src/util/util.c: add a new convenience macro
virBuildPath and virBuildPathInternal() function
