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.

Eric Blake 38d4bf49a0 tests: add helper to determine when to skip expensive tests
The logic set up in previous patch for exposing VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE
to individual tests is as follows:

make check VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=0   => getenv("VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE") sees "0"
make check VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=1   => getenv("VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE") sees "1"
make check                        => getenv("VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE") sees
either "0" or "1", based on configure options
cd tests; ./FOOtest               => getenv("VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE") sees
whatever is in your environment (usually NULL, but possibly garbage)

Merely checking if VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE is set in the environment
does the wrong thing; likewise, it is unsafe to assume the
variable will always contain a valid number.

As such, it helps to have helper functions, instead of making each
expensive test repeat the probe of the environment.

* tests/testutils.h (virTestGetExpensive): New prototype.
* tests/testutils.c (virTestGetExpensive): Implement it.
* tests/test-lib.sh (very_expensive_): Rename...
(test_expensive): ...and tweak to use VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE.

         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.
