Implementation of tunnelled migration, using a Unix Domain Socket
on the qemu backend. Note that this requires very new versions of
qemu (0.10.7 at least) in order to get the appropriate bugfixes.

Add the virStrncpy function, which takes a dst string, source string,
the number of bytes to copy and the number of bytes available in the
dest string. If the source string is too large to fit into the
destination string, including the \0 byte, then no data is copied and
the function returns NULL. Otherwise, this function copies n bytes
from source into dst, including the \0, and returns a pointer to the
dst string. This function is intended to replace all unsafe uses
of strncpy in the code base, since strncpy does *not* guarantee that
the buffer terminates with a \0.

The commit cb51aa48a7 "Fix up connection
reference counting." changed the driver closing and virConnectPtr
unref-logic in virConnectClose().
Before this commit virConnectClose() closed all drivers of the given
virConnectPtr and virUnrefConnect()'ed it afterwards. After this
commit the driver-closing is done in virUnrefConnect() if and only if
the ref-count of the virConnectPtr dropped to zero.
This change in execution order leads to a virConnectPtr leak, at least
for connections to Xen.
The relevant call sequences:
virConnectOpen() -> xenUnifiedOpen() ...
... xenInotifyOpen() -> virConnectRef(conn)
... xenStoreOpen() -> xenStoreAddWatch() -> conn->refs++
virConnectClose() -> xenUnifiedClose() ...
... xenInotifyClose() -> virUnrefConnect(conn)
... xenStoreClose() -> xenStoreRemoveWatch() -> virUnrefConnect(conn)
Before the commit this additional virConnectRef/virUnrefConnect calls
where no problem, because virConnectClose() closed the drivers
explicitly and the additional refs added by the Xen subdrivers were
removed properly. After the commit this additional refs result in a
virConnectPtr leak (including a leak of the hypercall file handle;
that's how I noticed this problem), because now the drivers are only
close if and only if the ref-count drops to zero, but this cannot
happen anymore, because the additional refs from the Xen subdrivers
would only be removed if the drivers get closed, but that doesn't
happen because the ref-count cannot drop to zero.
The fix for this problem is simple: remove the
virConnectRef/virUnrefConnect calls from the Xen subdrivers (see
attached patch). Maybe someone could explain why the Xen Inotify and
Xen Store driver do this extra ref-counting, but none of the other Xen
subdrivers. It seems unnecessary to me and can be removed without
problems.
