Ryan Harper 0cdc982995 qemu: call drive_unplug in DetachPciDiskDevice
Currently libvirt doesn't confirm whether the guest has responded to the
disk removal request.  In some cases this can leave the guest with
continued access to the device while the mgmt layer believes that it has
been removed.  With a recent qemu monitor command[1] we can
deterministically revoke a guests access to the disk (on the QEMU side)
to ensure no futher access is permitted.

This patch adds support for the drive_unplug() command and introduces it
in the disk removal paths.  There is some discussion to be had about how
to handle the case where the guest is running in a QEMU without this
command (and the fact that we currently don't have a way of detecting
what monitor commands are available).

Changes since v2:
 - use VIR_ERROR to report when unplug command not found
Changes since v1:
 - return > 0 when command isn't present, < 0 on command failure
 - detect when drive_unplug command isn't present and log error
   instead of failing entire command

         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.
