nwfilter: fix deadlock caused updating network device and nwfilter
Commit 6e5c79a1 tried to fix deadlock between nwfilter{Define,Undefine} and starting of guest, but this same deadlock exists for updating/attaching network device to domain. The deadlock was introduced by removing global QEMU driver lock because nwfilter was counting on this lock and ensure that all driver locks are locked inside of nwfilter{Define,Undefine}. This patch extends usage of virNWFilterReadLockFilterUpdates to prevent the deadlock for all possible paths in QEMU driver. LXC and UML drivers still have global lock.

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.
