The target= setting in xl disk configuration can be used to encode
meta info that is meaningful to a backend. Leverage this fact to
support qdisk network disk types such as rbd. E.g. <disk> config
such as
<disk type='network' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source protocol='rbd' name='pool/image'>
<host name='mon1.example.org' port='6321'/>
<host name='mon2.example.org' port='6322'/>
<host name='mon3.example.org' port='6322'/>
</source>
<target dev='hdb' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='1'/>
</disk>
can be converted to the following xl config (and vice versa)
disk = [ "format=raw,vdev=hdb,access=rw,backendtype=qdisk,
target=rbd:pool/image:auth_supported=none:mon_host=mon1.example.org\\:6321\\;mon2.example.org\\:6322\\;mon3.example.org\\:6322"
]
Note that in xl disk config, a literal backslash in target= must
be escaped with a backslash. Conversion of <auth> config is not
handled in this patch, but can be done in a follow-up patch.
Also add a test for the conversions.

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.
