Andrea Bolognani 6952af8b43 qemu: Propagate shared_filesystems
virFileIsSharedFS() is the function that ultimately decides
whether a filesystem should be considered shared, but the list
of manually configured shared filesystems is part of the QEMU
driver's configuration, so we need to pass the information
through several layers in order to make use of it.

Note that with this change the list is propagated all the way
through, but its contents are still ignored, so the behavior
remains the same for now.

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.

Further information about the libvirt project can be found on the website:
