sasl: Fix authentication when using PLAIN mechanism
With some authentication mechanism (PLAIN for example), sasl_client_start() can return SASL_OK, which translates to virNetSASLSessionClientStart() returning VIR_NET_SASL_COMPLETE. cyrus-sasl documentation is a bit vague as to what to do in such situation, but upstream clarified this a bit in http://asg.andrew.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.cyrus-sasl&msg=10104 When we got VIR_NET_SASL_COMPLETE after virNetSASLSessionClientStart() and if the remote also tells us that authentication is complete, then we should end the authentication procedure rather than forcing a call to virNetSASLSessionClientStep(). Without this patch, when trying to use SASL PLAIN, I get: error :authentication failed : Failed to step SASL negotiation: -1 (SASL(-1): generic failure: Unable to find a callback: 32775) This patch is based on a spice-gtk patch by Dietmar Maurer.
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.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
