Fix a memory leak in the snapshot code in libvirtd.
While running libvirtd under valgrind and doing some snapshot testing I noticed that we would always leak a connection reference. The problem was actually that we were leaking a domain reference in the libvirtd remote snapshot code, which was in turn causing a leaked connection reference. Fix the situation by explicitly taking and dropping a domain reference where we need it. Signed-off-by: Chris Lalancette <clalance@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.

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.
