This patch annotates APIs with low or high priority.
In low set MUST be all APIs which might eventually access monitor
(and thus block indefinitely). Other APIs may be marked as high
priority. However, some must be (e.g. domainDestroy).
For high priority calls (HPC), there are some high priority workers
(HPW) created in the pool. HPW can execute only HPC, although normal
worker can process any call regardless priority. Therefore, only those
APIs which are guaranteed to end in reasonable small amount of time
can be marked as HPC.
The size of this HPC pool is static, because HPC are expected to end
quickly, therefore jobs assigned to this pool will be served quickly.
It can be configured in libvirtd.conf via prio_workers variable.
Default is set to 5.
To mark API with low or high priority, append priority:{low|high} to
it's comment in src/remote/remote_protocol.x. This is similar to
autogen|skipgen. If not marked, the generator assumes low as default.
This patch introduces a internal RPC API "virNetServerClose", which
is standalone with "virNetServerFree". it closes all the socket fds,
and unlinks the unix socket paths, regardless of whether the socket
is still referenced or not.
This is to address regression bug:

Allow RPC servers to advertise themselves using MDNS,
via Avahi
* src/rpc/virnetserver.c, src/rpc/virnetserver.h: Allow
registration of MDNS services via avahi
* src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c, src/rpc/virnetserverservice.h: Add
API to fetch the listen port number
* src/rpc/virnetsocket.c, src/rpc/virnetsocket.h: Add API to
fetch the local port number
* src/rpc/virnetservermdns.c, src/rpc/virnetservermdns.h: Represent
an MDNS advertisement
To facilitate creation of new daemons providing XDR RPC services,
pull a lot of the libvirtd daemon code into a set of reusable
objects.
* virNetServer: A server contains one or more services which
accept incoming clients. It maintains the list of active
clients. It has a list of RPC programs which can be used
by clients. When clients produce a complete RPC message,
the server passes this onto the corresponding program for
handling, and queues any response back with the client.
* virNetServerClient: Encapsulates a single client connection.
All I/O for the client is handled, reading & writing RPC
messages.
* virNetServerProgram: Handles processing and dispatch of
RPC method calls for a single RPC (program,version).
Multiple programs can be registered with the server.
* virNetServerService: Encapsulates socket(s) listening for
new connections. Each service listens on a single host/port,
but may have multiple sockets if on a dual IPv4/6 host.
Each new daemon now merely has to define the list of RPC procedures
& their handlers. It does not need to deal with any network related
functionality at all.
