Add virRotatingFileReader and virRotatingFileWriter objects which allow reading & writing from/to files with automation rotation to N backup files when a size limit is reached. This is useful for guest logging when a guaranteed finite size limit is required. Use of external tools like logrotate is inadequate since it leaves the possibility for guest to DOS the host in between invokations of logrotate. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

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.
