Daniel P. Berrange da13f2c70c Add documentation for access control system
This adds two new pages to the website, acl.html describing
the general access control framework and permissions models,
and aclpolkit.html describing the use of polkit as an
access control driver.

page.xsl is modified to support a new syntax

  <div id="include" filename="somefile.htmlinc"/>

which will cause the XSL transform to replace that <div>
with the contents of 'somefile.htmlinc'. We use this in
the acl.html.in file, to pull the table of permissions
for each libvirt object. This table is autogenerated
from the enums in src/access/viraccessperms.h by the
genaclperms.pl script.

newapi.xsl is modified so that the list of permissions
checks shown against each API will link to the description
of the permissions in acl.html

         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.
