Michal Privoznik 87a43a907f lib: Use g_clear_pointer() more
This change was generated using the following spatch:

  @ rule1 @
  expression a;
  identifier f;
  @@
    <...
  - f(*a);
    ... when != a;
  - *a = NULL;
  + g_clear_pointer(a, f);
    ...>

  @ rule2 @
  expression a;
  identifier f;
  @@
    <...
  - f(a);
    ... when != a;
  - a = NULL;
  + g_clear_pointer(&a, f);
    ...>

Then, I left some of the changes out, like tools/nss/ (which
doesn't link with glib) and put back a comment in
qemuBlockJobProcessEventCompletedActiveCommit() which coccinelle
decided to remove (I have no idea why).

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.
