Michal Privoznik 46fa0e46e1 lib: Rename VIR_SAVE_PARAM_* to VIR_DOMAIN_SAVE_PARAM_*
A few commits ago new APIs were introduced (virDomainSaveParams()
and virDomainRestoreParams()) and with them new typed parameters:
VIR_SAVE_PARAM_FILE and VIR_SAVE_PARAM_DXML. But their name does
not suggest they apply to either of the APIs nor that they are
intended for domain related APIs. Switch to
VIR_DOMAIN_SAVE_PARAM prefix to make it obvious.

It's true we already have VIR_DOMAIN_SAVE_* symbols which are
part of virDomainSaveRestoreFlags enum, therefore stick also with
'_PARAM_ ' part of the name to differentiate the two.

Libvirt API for virtualization

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.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
