qemu: Introduce qemuDomainSecretPrepare and Destroy
Rather than needing to pass the conn parameter to various command line building API's, add qemuDomainSecretPrepare just prior to the qemuProcessLaunch which calls qemuBuilCommandLine. The function must be called after qemuProcessPrepareHost since it's expected to eventually need the domain masterKey generated during the prepare host call. Additionally, future patches may require device aliases (assigned during the prepare domain call) in order to associate the secret objects. The qemuDomainSecretDestroy is called after the qemuProcessLaunch finishes in order to clear and free memory used by the secrets that were recently prepared, so they are not kept around in memory too long. Placing the setup here is beneficial for future patches which will need the domain masterKey in order to generate an encrypted secret along with an initialization vector to be saved and passed (since the masterKey shouldn't be passed around). Finally, since the secret is not added during command line build, the hotplug code will need to get the secret into the private disk data. Signed-off-by: John Ferlan <jferlan@redhat.com>

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
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.
