rpc: Make the dispatch generator handle 'void name(void)' style procedures
The only 'void name(void)' style procedure in the protocol is 'close' that is handled special, but also programming errors like a missing _args or _ret suffix on the structs in the .x files can create such a situation by accident. Making the generator aware of this avoids bogus errors from the generator such as: Use of uninitialized value in exists at ./rpc/gendispatch.pl line 967. Also this allows to get rid of the -c option and the special case code for the 'close' procedure, as the generator handles it now correctly. Reported by Michal Privoznik
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.
