Paolo Bonzini 738ee810b4 network: add 'bootp' and 'tftp' config
Currently, libvirtd will start a dnsmasq process for the virtual
network, but (aside from killing the dnsmasq process and replacing it),
there's no way to define tftp boot options.

This change introduces the appropriate tags to the dhcp configuration:

 <network>
   <name>default</name>
   <bridge name="virbr%d" />
   <forward/>
   <ip address="192.168.122.1" netmask="255.255.255.0">
     <tftp root="/var/lib/tftproot" />
     <dhcp>
       <range start="192.168.122.2" end="192.168.122.254" />
       <bootp file="pxeboot.img"/>
     </dhcp>
   </ip>
 </network>

When the attributes are present, these are passed to the
arguments to dnsmasq:

 dnsmasq [...] --enable-tftp --tftp-root /srv/tftp --dhcp-boot pxeboot.img
               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                      from <tftp />                     from <bootp />

At present, only local tftp servers are supported (ie, dnsmasq runs as
the tftp server), but we could improve this in future by adding a
server= attribute.

         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.

Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
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.
