Michal Privoznik 86e511fafb lib: Annotate more function as NULL terminated
While __attribute((sentinel)) (exposed by glib under
G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED macro) is a gcc extension, it's supported
by clang too. It's already being used throughout our code but
some functions that take variadic arguments and expect NULL at
the end were lacking such annotation. Fill them in.

After this, there are still some functions left untouched because
they expect a different sentinel than NULL. Unfortunately, glib
does not provide macro for different sentinels. We may come up
with our own, but let's save that for future work.

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.
