Daniel P. Berrange 4445723811 Introduce a new public API for domain events
The current API for domain events has a number of problems

 - Only allows for domain lifecycle change events
 - Does not allow the same callback to be registered multiple times
 - Does not allow filtering of events to a specific domain

This introduces a new more general purpose domain events API

  typedef enum {
     VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE = 0,       /* virConnectDomainEventCallback */
      ...more events later..
  }

  int virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
                                       virDomainPtr dom, /* Optional, to filter */
                                       int eventID,
                                       virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback cb,
                                       void *opaque,
                                       virFreeCallback freecb);

  int virConnectDomainEventDeregisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
                                         int callbackID);

Since different event types can received different data in the callback,
the API is defined with a generic callback. Specific events will each
have a custom signature for their callback. Thus when registering an
event it is neccessary to cast the callback to the generic signature

eg

  int myDomainEventCallback(virConnectPtr conn,
                            virDomainPtr dom,
                            int event,
                            int detail,
                            void *opaque)
  {
    ...
  }

  virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(conn, NULL,
                                   VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE,
                                   VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK(myDomainEventCallback)
                                   NULL, NULL);

The VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK() macro simply does a "bad" cast
to the generic signature
