Daniel P. Berrange 053307175c Assign device aliases for all devices at startup 
When starting a guest, give every device a unique alias. This will
be used for the 'id' parameter in -device args in later patches.
It can also be used to uniquely identify devices in the monitor

For old QEMU without -device, assign disk names based on QEMU's
historical naming scheme.

* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Assign unique device aliases
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove obsolete qemudDiskDeviceName
  and use the device alias in eject & blockstats commands

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
