Daniel P. Berrange 0943048ad0 Remove direct storage of hostnet_name & vlan 
The current way of assigning names to the host network backend and
NIC device in QEMU was over complicated, by varying naming scheme
based on the NIC model and backend type. This simplifies the naming
to simply be 'net0' and 'hostnet0', allowing code to easily determine
the host network name and vlan based off the primary device alias
name 'net0'. This in turn allows removal of alot of QEMU specific
code from the XML parser, and makes it easier to assign new unique
names for NICs that are hotplugged

* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Remove hostnet_name
  and vlan fields from virNetworkDefPtr
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c:
  Use a single network alias naming scheme regardless of NIC type
  or backend type. Determine VLANs from the alias name.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-eth-names.args,
  tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-device.args,
  tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-netdev.args: Update
  for new simpler naming scheme

         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.
