Peter Krempa b17fd211e2 testQEMUSchemaValidateCommand: Add possibility for partial QMP validation
The QMP schema for 'device_add' is not complete yet. Allow validation of
incomplete schema so that we can enable at least some validation. Once
there's more schema in the future all present members are still
validated.

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.
