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.

Ian Campbell daeace5c5d libxl: Support cmdline= in xl config files
... and consolidate the cmdline/extra/root parsing to facilitate doing
so.

The logic is the same as xl's parse_cmdline from the current xen.git master
branch (e6f0e099d2c17de47fd86e817b1998db903cab61).

On the formatting side switch to producing cmdline= instead of extra=.

Update a few tests and add serveral more.
  - test-cmdline is added to test the exclusive use of cmdline.
  - test-fullvirt-direct-kernel-boot.cfg is updated due to the switch
    on the formatting side and now tests the exclusive use of cmdline=.
  - Tests are added for both paravirt and fullvirt where the .cfg uses
    extra= and (paravirt only) root=. These are format (xl->xml) only
    since the inverse will generate cmdline= hence is not a round trip
    (which was already true if using root=, which used to generate
    extra= on the way back).
  - Tests are added for both paravirt and fullvirt where the .cfg
    declares cmdline= as well as bogus extra= and (paravirt only) root=
    entries which should be ignored. Again these are format only tests
    since the inverse won't include the bogus lines.

The last two bullets here required splitting the DO_TEST macro into
two halves, as is done in the xmconfigtest.c case.

In order to introduce a use of VIR_WARN for logging I had to add
virerror.h and VIR_LOG_INIT.

         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.
