0ac13b189f virsh: Do not try connecting first time without polkit agent
Trying to connect once without a polkit agent will generate an error on the
server side which seems too rough given it only serves the purpose of the client
(virsh in this case) to figure out that an agent is needed.  Thankfully we can
just try running the agent.  It does not break anything as we are running it
with `--fallback`, which makes sure it does not replace an existing agent in
case there is one already registered.

The second piece of code trying to start the polkit text agent is kept in order
to _really_ try out starting the agent (and error out when failing to do so)
just in case the agent was not available the first time it was ran.  Even though
it should not happen it avoids a very rare race condition and really does not
add much complexity.

56fbabf1a1 Add basic driver for the Cloud-Hypervisor
Cloud-Hypervisor is a KVM virtualization using hypervisor. It
functions similarly to qemu and the libvirt Cloud-Hypervisor driver
uses a very similar structure to the libvirt driver.

The biggest difference from the libvirt perspective is that the
"monitor" socket is seperated into two sockets one that commands are
issued to and one that events are notified from. The current
implementation only uses the command socket (running over a REST API
with json encoded data) with future changes to add support for the
event socket (to better handle shutdowns from inside the VM).

This patch adds support for the following initial VM actions using the
Cloud-Hypervsior API:
 * vm.create
 * vm.delete
 * vm.boot
 * vm.shutdown
 * vm.reboot
 * vm.pause
 * vm.resume

To use the Cloud-Hypervisor driver, the v15.0 release of
Cloud-Hypervisor is required to be installed.

Some additional notes:
 * The curl handle is persistent but not useful to detect ch process
 shutdown/crash (a future patch will address this shortcoming)
 * On a 64-bit host Cloud-Hypervisor needs to support PVH and so can
 emulate 32-bit mode but it isn't fully tested (a 64-bit kernel and
 32-bit userspace is fine, a 32-bit kernel isn't validated)

c8238579fb lib: Drop internal virXXXPtr typedefs
Historically, we declared pointer type to our types:

  typedef struct _virXXX virXXX;
  typedef virXXX *virXXXPtr;

But usefulness of such declaration is questionable, at best.
Unfortunately, we can't drop every such declaration - we have to
carry some over, because they are part of public API (e.g.
virDomainPtr). But for internal types - we can do drop them and
use what every other C project uses 'virXXX *'.

This change was generated by a very ugly shell script that
generated sed script which was then called over each file in the
repository. For the shell script refer to the cover letter:

22904b5702 vsh: Rework how option to complete is found
The way that auto completion works currently is that user's input
is parsed, and then we try to find the first --option (in the
parsed structure) that has the same value as user's input around
where <TAB> was pressed. For instance, for the following input:

  virsh # command --arg1 hello --arg2 world<TAB>

we will see "world" as text that user is trying to autocomplete
(this is affected by rl_basic_word_break_characters which
readline uses internally to break user's input into individual
words) and find that it is --arg2 that user is trying to
autocomplete. So far so good, for this naive approach. But
consider the following example:

  virsh # command --arg1 world --arg2 world<TAB>

Here, both arguments have the same value and because we see
"world" as text that user is trying to autocomplete we would
think that it is --arg1 that user wants to autocomplete. This is
obviously wrong.

Fortunately, readline stores the current position of cursor (into
rl_point) and we can use that when parsing user's input: whenever
we reach a position that matches the cursor then we know that
that is the place where <TAB> was pressed and hence that is the
--option that user wants to autocomplete. Readline stores the
cursor position as offset (numbered from 1) from the beginning of
user's input. We store this input into @parser->pos initially,
but then advance it as we tokenize it. Therefore, what we need is
to store the original position too.

Thanks to Martin who helped me with this.

a79e7639da build: eliminate useless WITH_VIRTUALPORT check
WITH_VIRTUALPORT just checks that we are building on Linux and that
IFLA_PORT_MAX is defined in linux/if_link.h. Back when 802.11Qb[gh]
support was added, the IFLA_* stuff was new (introduced in kernel
2.6.35, backported to RHEL6 2.6.32 kernel at some point), and so this
extra check was necessary, because libvirt was being built on Linux
distros that didn't yet have IFLA_* (e.g. older RHEL6, all
RHEL5). It's been in the kernel for a *very* long time now, so all
supported versions of all Linux platforms libvirt builds on have it.

Note that the above paragraph implies that the conditional compilation
should be changed to #if defined(__linux__). However, the astute
reader will notice that the code in question is sending and receiving
netlink messages, so it really should be conditional on WITH_LIBNL
(which implies __linux__) instead, so that's what this patch does.

b1b878c512 util: activate directory override when used from library
The Perl bindings for libvirt use the test driver for unit tests. This
tries to load the cpu_map/index.xml file, and when run from an
uninstalled build will fail.

The problem is that virFileActivateDirOverride is called by our various
binaries like libvirtd, virsh, but is not called when a 3rd party app
uses libvirt.so

To deal with this we allow the LIBVIRT_DIR_OVERRIDE=1 env variable to be
set and make virInitialize look for this. The 'run' script will set it,
so now build using this script to run against an uninstalled tree we
will correctly resolve files to the source tree.

689beaa47c backup: Implement virsh support for checkpoints
Introduce a bunch of new virsh commands for managing checkpoints in
isolation. More commands are needed for performing incremental
backups, but these commands were easy to implement by modeling heavily
after virsh-snapshot.c. There is no need for checkpoint-revert or
checkpoint-current since those snapshot APIs have no checkpoint
counterpart.  Similarly, it is not necessary to change which
checkpoint is current when redefining from XML, since until we
integrate checkpoints with snapshots, there is only a linear chain
(and you can deduce the current checkpoint by instead using
'checkpoint-list --leaves').  Other aspects of checkpoint-list are
also a bit simpler than the snapshot counterpart, in part because we
don't have to cater to back-compat to older API.

Upcoming patches will test these interfaces once the test driver
supports checkpoints.

5aec02dc37 make: Drop building without driver modules
Driver modules proved to be reliable for a long time. Since support for
not building modules complicates the code and makefiles drop it.

2453501fc8 virsh: Track when create pkttyagent
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1374126

Due to how the processing for authentication using polkit works, the
virshConnect code must first "attempt" an virConnectOpenAuth and then
check for a "special" return error code VIR_ERR_AUTH_UNAVAILABLE in
order to attempt to "retry" the authentication after performing a creation
of a pkttyagent to handle the challenge/response for the client.

However, if pkttyagent creation is not possible for the authentication
being attempted (such as perhaps a "qemu+ssh://someuser@localhost/system"),
then the same failure pattern would be returned and another attempt to
create a pkttyagent would be done. This would continue "forever" until
someone forced quit (e.g. ctrl-c) from virsh as the 'authfail' was not
incremented when creating the pkttyagent.

So add a 'agentCreated' boolean to track if we've attempted to create the
agent at least once and force a failure if that creation returned the same
error pattern.

This resolves a possible never ending loop and will generate an error:

error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: authentication unavailable: no polkit agent available to authenticate action 'org.libvirt.unix.manage'

NB: If the authentication was for a sufficiently privileged client, such as
qemu+ssh://root@localhost/system, then the remoteDispatchAuthList "allows"
the authentication to use libvirt since @callerUid would be 0.

0b8c17203e virsh: report errors in virshInit()
There are several functions in virshInit which can fail, especially
when running win32 builds under WINE. Currently virsh just exits
without reporting what error happened.
