Peter Krempa a895686bd1 qemuxmlactivetest: Prepare for proper active/inactive -> active/inactive testing
Currently the xml->xml testing we have in qemuxml2xmltest covers only 3
of the 4 possibilities:

By invocation:
  active -> active;
  inactive -> inactive;

by unintentionally:
  active -> inactive  (for configs which don't set an 'id' as the
                       formatter assumes it's inactive)

To do it better introduce proper active -> inactive/active testing into
qemuxmlactivetest. It's chosen such as we only really parse an XML as
live when restoring a status XML. To give users possibility to avoid
constructing a full status XML add a simpler variant. As of such it will
be used only for configs where we specifically cared about parsing live
data.

To ensure that the formatter doesn't decide that a config is inactive
because it doesn't have an ID we fill in a domain ID if it was not
present in the source.

In this patch the tests are not yet added.

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.
