Historically we've used 'unsigned long' and allowed wrapping of negative
numbers for bandwidth values. Add a helper that will simplify adding
support for scaled integers and support for byte granularity while
keeping the compatibility with the older approach.
The macro would eat the first parameter. In some cases the format string
for vshPrint was eaten. In other cases the calls referenced variables
which did not exist in the given context. Avoid errors by doing compile
time checking.
Commmit df8192aa introduced admin related rename and some minor
(caused by automated approach, aka sed) and some more severe isues along with
it. First reason to revert is the inconsistency with libvirt library.
Although we deal with the daemon directly rather than with a specific
hypervisor, we still do have a connection. That being said, contributors might
get under the impression that AdmDaemonNew would spawn/start a new daemon
(since it's admin API, why not...), or AdmDaemonClose would do the exact
opposite or they might expect DaemonIsAlive report overall status of the daemon
which definitely isn't the case.
The second reason to revert this patch is renaming virt-admin client. The
client tool does not necessarily have to reflect the names of the API's it's
using in his internals. An example would be 's/vshAdmConnect/vshAdmDaemon'
where noone can be certain of what the latter function really does. The former
is quite expressive about some connection magic it performs, but the latter does
not say anything, especially when vshAdmReconnect and vshAdmDisconnect were
left untouched.
virAdmConnect was named after virConnect, but after some discussions,
most of the APIs called will be working with remote daemon and starting
them virAdmDaemon will make more sense. Only possibly controversal name
is CloseCallback (de)registration, and connecting to the daemon (which
will still be Open/Close), but even this makes sense if one thinks about
the daemon being opened and closed, e.g. as file, etc.
This way all the APIs working with the daemon will start with
virAdmDaemon prefix, they will accept virAdmDaemonPtr as first parameter
and that will better suit with other namings as well (virDomain*,
virAdmServer*, etc.).
Because in virt-admin, the connection name does not refer to a struct
that would have a connect in its name, also adjust 'connname' in
clients. And because it is not used anywhere in the vsh code, move it
from there into each client.

There's no reason why debug initialization could not be made completely
hidden, just like readline initialization is. The point of the global
initializer vshInit is to make initialization of smaller features transparent
to the user/caller.
Commit a0b6a36f separated vshInitDebug from the original vshInit
(before virsh got split and vshInit became virshInit - commit 834c5720)
in order to be able to debug command line parsing.
After the parsing is finished, debugging is reinitialized to work properly.
There might as well be other features that require re-initialization as
the command line could specify parameters that override our defaults which
had been set prior to calling vshArgvParse.
As part of the effort to stay consistent, change the vshInit signature
from returning int to returning bool. Moreover, remove the
unnecessary error label as there is no cleanup that would make use of
it.
In order to share as much virsh' logic as possible with upcomming
virt-admin client we need to split virsh logic into virsh specific and
client generic features.
Since majority of virsh methods should be generic enough to be used by
other clients, it's much easier to rename virsh specific data to virshX
than doing this vice versa. It moved generic virsh commands (including info
and opts structures) to generic module vsh.c.
Besides renaming methods and structures, this patch also involves introduction
of a client specific control structure being referenced as private data in the
original control structure, introduction of a new global vsh Initializer,
which currently doesn't do much, but there is a potential for added
functionality in the future.
Lastly it introduced client hooks which are especially necessary during
client connecting phase.
