Turn QEMU capabilities object into a full virObjectPtr
The current qemu capabilities are stored in a virBitmapPtr object, whose type is exposed to callers. We want to store more data besides just the flags, so we need to move to a struct type. This object will also need to be reference counted, since we'll be maintaining a cache of data per binary. This change introduces a 'qemuCapsPtr' virObject class. Most of the change is just renaming types and variables in all the callers Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
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.

Description
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.
