Eric Blake 37bb0447bb list: add virDomainListAllSnapshots API 
There was an inherent race between virDomainSnapshotNum() and
virDomainSnapshotListNames(), where an additional snapshot could
be created in the meantime, or where a snapshot could be deleted
before converting the name back to a virDomainSnapshotPtr.  It
was also an awkward name: the function operates on domains, not
domain snapshots.  virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames() suffered
from the same inherent race, although its naming was nicer.

This patch makes things nicer by grabbing a snapshot list
atomically, in the format most useful to the user.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainListAllSnapshots)
(virDomainSnapshotListAllChildren): New declarations.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotListNames)
(virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames): Add cross-references.
(virDomainListAllSnapshots, virDomainSnapshotListAllChildren):
New functions.
* src/libvirt_public.syms (LIBVIRT_0.9.13): Export them.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainListAllSnapshots)
(virDrvDomainSnapshotListAllChildren): New callbacks.
* python/generator.py (skip_function): Prepare for later
hand-written versions.

    libvirt Python Bindings README
    ==============================

Most of the libvirt python binding code is automatically generated
using the script  generator.py, and the API description from
docs/libvirt-api.xml


Manually written files:

 - libvirt-override.c: methods where the C binding needs to be hand crafted
 - libvirt-override.py: global methods where the C and python bindings have different args
 - libvirt-override-api.xml: methods where the auto-extracted API docs are not
   suitable for python auto-generator. Overriding this if the method is going
   into libvirt-override.c, but we still want auto-generated libvirt-override.py
 - libvirt-override-virConnect.py: virConnect class methods
 - typewrappers.h,.c: Python object wrappers for each libvirt C object


Auto-generated files:

  - libvirt.py: The main python binding. Comprises auto-generated code, along
    with contents from libvirt-override.py and libvirt-override-virConnect.py
  - libvirt.c, libvirt.h: The C glue layer for the python binding. Comprises
    auto-generated code, along with libvirt-override.c
  - libvirt-export.c: List of auto-generated C methods, included into
    the libvirt-override.c method table
