virCaps: get rid of defaultConsoleTargetType callback
This patch refactors various places to allow removing of the defaultConsoleTargetType callback from the virCaps structure. A new console character device target type is introduced - VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_NONE - to mark that no type was specified in the XML. This type is at the end converted to the standard VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_SERIAL. Other types that are different from this default have to be processed separately in the device post parse callback.
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.
