927a7ef265 cli: Add --metadata option
Can take name, description, uuid, and title (new). This deprecates the
separate --description and --uuid element, but we won't require it for
specifying a name with virt-install/virt-image since that's quite
overkill. Allowing --name with this option is mostly for the benefit
of virt-xml.

7ba76b5748 cli: Add --memory, deprecates -r/--ram

d216c44157 Stub out --check-cpu option
It's old, uninteresting, and I don't think anyone is depending on it
to work. Parse the command line option, but don't do anything differently.

0019036e97 man: fix a typo in virt-manager man page
s/-help/--help

Although '-help' could work, but we should not encourage
this, and also should be same as
the output of 'virt-manager -h' command.

eca87838fb virt-install: Add --features option

1730a8e5ff virtinst: add nwfilter support
This allows to make use of libvirt network filtering support with virt-install.
With the additional option "filterref" in the --network parameter one can
configure any defined nwfilter per network interface, i.e.:
virt-install ... --network network=mynet,model=virtio,filterref=clean-traffic

5fd874e231 change virt-manager option spice-disable-usbredir to spice-disable-auto-usbredir
This is option is supposed to turn off Auto USB redirection feature
rather than USB redirection support. So adding 'auto' make it clearer.
And add its docs to manpage.

b8a209ef9c virt-install: Make default graphics configurable
The '--default-graphics' option of 'setup.py configure' only affects
virt-manager, but not virt-install.  This should be unified, so this
patch checks whether default_graphics taken from the cli is supported
and uses that option.

54c6bb6bd1 Add controller example into virt-install manual page
There was an example for USB controller, but to show all the
sub-options, there was the master= option used without extra
information about the fact that it is used for companion controllers
only.  So this patch adds second example in front of the previous one
and re-words the description a little bit.

a58442ec3e Remove AUTHORS
Kind of a maintenance pain, and it's just poorly duplicating info

have the interest in figuring it out. Patches welcome :)

7ae458f1ba virt-install: Error if -c <uri> specified
-c maps to --cdrom for virt-install, but for other libvirt tools like
virsh it maps to --connect.

Handle -c and --cdrom a little differently: if -c contains '://',
error out with an explanation. User can work around it by using
--cdrom. This could in theory break some users, but the change they
make will be backwards compatible.
