This enables support for running QEMU embedded to the calling
application process using a URI:
qemu:///embed?root=/some/path
Note that it is important to keep the path reasonably short to
avoid risk of hitting the limit on UNIX socket path names
which is 108 characters.
When using the embedded mode with a root=/var/tmp/embed, the
driver will use the following paths:
logDir: /var/tmp/embed/log/qemu
swtpmLogDir: /var/tmp/embed/log/swtpm
configBaseDir: /var/tmp/embed/etc/qemu
stateDir: /var/tmp/embed/run/qemu
swtpmStateDir: /var/tmp/embed/run/swtpm
cacheDir: /var/tmp/embed/cache/qemu
libDir: /var/tmp/embed/lib/qemu
swtpmStorageDir: /var/tmp/embed/lib/swtpm
defaultTLSx509certdir: /var/tmp/embed/etc/pki/qemu
These are identical whether the embedded driver is privileged
or unprivileged.
This compares with the system instance which uses
logDir: /var/log/libvirt/qemu
swtpmLogDir: /var/log/swtpm/libvirt/qemu
configBaseDir: /etc/libvirt/qemu
stateDir: /run/libvirt/qemu
swtpmStateDir: /run/libvirt/qemu/swtpm
cacheDir: /var/cache/libvirt/qemu
libDir: /var/lib/libvirt/qemu
swtpmStorageDir: /var/lib/libvirt/swtpm
defaultTLSx509certdir: /etc/pki/qemu
At this time all features present in the QEMU driver are available when
running in embedded mode, availability matching whether the embedded
driver is privileged or unprivileged.

When QEMU uid/gid is set to non-root this is pointless as if we just
used a regular setuid/setgid call, the process will have all its
capabilities cleared anyway by the kernel.
When QEMU uid/gid is set to root, this is almost (always?) never
what people actually want. People make QEMU run as root in order
to access some privileged resource that libvirt doesn't support
yet and this often requires capabilities. As a result they have
to go find the qemu.conf param to turn this off. This is not
viable for libguestfs - they want to control everything via the
XML security label to request running as root regardless of the
qemu.conf settings for user/group.
Clearing capabilities was implemented originally because there
was a proposal in Fedora to change permissions such that root,
with no capabilities would not be able to compromise the system.
ie a locked down root account. This never went anywhere though,
and as a result clearing capabilities when running as root does
not really get us any security benefit AFAICT. The root user
can easily do something like create a cronjob, which will then
faithfully be run with full capabilities, trivially bypassing
the restriction we place.
IOW, our clearing of capabilities is both useless from a security
POV, and breaks valid use cases when people need to run as root.
This removes the clear_emulator_capabilities configuration
option from qemu.conf, and always runs QEMU with capabilities
when root. The behaviour when non-root is unchanged.

Similarly how we allow adding arbitrary command line arguments and
environment variables this patch introduces the ability to control
libvirt's perception of the qemu process by tweaking the capability bits
for testing purposes.
The idea is to allow developers and users either test a new feature by
enabling it early or disabling it to see whether it introduced
regressions.
This feature is not meant for production use though, so users should
handle it with care.

The HTML5 doctype is simply
<!DOCTYPE html>
no DTD is present because HTML5 is no longer defined as an
extension of SGML.
XSL has no way to natively output a doctype without a public
or system identifier, so we have to use an <xsl:text> hack
instead.

The previous commit failed to update the XSL to take account
of fact that in XHTML mode the elements need namespace
prefixes. This caused every web page to be blank!
The rule generating the HTML docs passing the --html flag
to xsltproc. This makes it use the legacy HTML parser, which
either ignores or tries to fix all sorts of broken XML tags.
There's no reason why we should be writing broken XML in
the first place, so removing --html and adding the XHTML
doctype to all files forces us to create good XML.
This adds the XHTML doc type and fixes many, many XML tag
problems it exposes.

Someone mentioned to me that they interpreted this section of the KVM
driver page as suggesting that new guests should be created by
creating a qemu commandline and converting it to XML with
domxml-from-native. I don't think that's the intent of
domxml-from-native, so I added that clarification.
The "libvirt supports:" section on the main page of libvirt.org
contains a list of hypervisors with links that point to the sites of
the underlying virt technologies. The entry for KVM points to
http://www.linux-kvm.org/, for example. People coming to libvirt.org
for the first time are likely to know about those sites, and they're
probably interested in how libvirt manages those technologies. This
patch points those links to the libvirt driver pages instead. It also
consolidates KVM and QEMU as there is only one libvirt driver page for
them. Finally, it adds a line about networking support.
