qemu: Don't corrupt pointer in qemuDomainSaveMemory()
The code that was split out into the qemuDomainSaveMemory expands the pointer containing the XML description of the domain that it gets from higher layers. If the pointer changes the old one is invalid and the upper layer function tries to free it causing an abort. This patch changes the expansion of the original string to a new allocation and copy of the contents.
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.
