Daniel P. Berrange 980a132a24 Defines the basics of a generic RPC protocol in XDR 
This patch defines the basics of a generic RPC protocol in XDR.
This is wire ABI compatible with the original remote_protocol.x.
It takes everything except for the RPC calls / events from that
protocol

 - The basic header virNetMessageHeader (aka remote_message_header)
 - The error object virNetMessageError  (aka remote_error)
 - Two dummy objects virNetMessageDomain & virNetMessageNetwork
   sadly needed to keep virNetMessageError ABI compatible with
   the old remote_error

The RPC protocol supports method calls, async events and
bidirectional data streams as before

* src/Makefile.am: Add rules for generating RPC code from
  protocol & define a new libvirt-net-rpc.la helper library
* src/rpc/virnetprotocol.x: New generic RPC protocol

         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.
