Eric Blake 318ea3cb77 storage: initial support for linking with libgfapi
We support gluster volumes in domain XML, so we also ought to
support them as a storage pool.  Besides, a future patch will
want to take advantage of libgfapi to handle the case of a
gluster device holding qcow2 rather than raw storage, and for
that to work, we need a storage backend that can read gluster
storage volume contents.  This sets up the framework.

Note that the new pool is named 'gluster' to match a
<disk type='network'><source protocol='gluster'> image source
already supported in a <domain>; it does NOT match the
<pool type='netfs'><source><target type='glusterfs'>,
since that uses a FUSE mount to a local file name rather than
a network name.

This and subsequent patches have been tested against glusterfs
3.4.1 (available on Fedora 19); there are likely bugs in older
versions that may prevent decent use of gfapi, so this patch
enforces the minimum version tested.  A future patch may lower
the minimum.  On the other hand, I hit at least two bugs in
3.4.1 that will be fixed in 3.5/3.4.2, where it might be worth
raising the minimum: glfs_readdir is nicer to use than
glfs_readdir_r [1], and glfs_fini should only return failure on
an actual failure [2].
