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 529e4a5006 docs: standardize description of flags
We had loads of different styles in describing the @flags parameter
for various APIs, as well as several APIs that didn't list which
enums provided the bit values valid for the flags.

The end result is one of two formats:
@flags: bitwise-OR of vir...Flags
@flags: extra flags; not used yet, so callers should always pass 0

* src/libvirt.c: Use common sentences for flags.  Also,
(virDomainGetBlockIoTune): Mention virTypedParameterFlags.
(virConnectOpenAuth): Mention virConnectFlags.
(virDomainMigrate, virDomainMigrate2, virDomainMigrateToURI)
(virDomainMigrateToURI2): Mention virDomainMigrateFlags.
(virDomainMemoryPeek): Mention virDomainMemoryFlags.
(virStoragePoolBuild): Mention virStoragePoolBuildFlags.
(virStoragePoolDelete): Mention virStoragePoolDeleteFlags.
(virStreamNew): Mention virStreamFlags.
(virDomainOpenGraphics): Mention virDomainOpenGraphicsFlags.

         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.
