Add API for opening a QEMU monitor from a socket FD
Currently qemuMonitorOpen() requires an address of the QEMU monitor. When doing QMP based capabilities detection it is easier if a pre-opened FD can be provided, since then the monitor can be run on the STDIO console. Add a new API qemuMonitorOpenFD() for such usage 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.

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
