Desktop tool for managing virtual machines via libvirt

The reason this was done, is because we need to inject files with certain names into the initrd/cdrom media so the guest OS can find them, but our injection infrastructure didn't have the knowledge necessary to rename files at injection time. Having to deal with the subdir complicates cleanup and unattended data generation, so let's do away with it. Teach the injection bits about renaming, and adjust all the related bits to use standard tempdirs |

Virtual Machine Manager
virt-manager
is a graphical tool for managing virtual machines
via libvirt. Most usage is with QEMU/KVM
virtual machines, but Xen and libvirt LXC containers are well
supported. Common operations for any libvirt driver should work.
Several command line tools are also provided:
virt-install
: Create new libvirt virtual machinesvirt-clone
: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machinesvirt-xml
: Edit existing libvirt virtual machines/manipulate libvirt XMLvirt-convert
: Convert VMX or OVF configs to libvirt virtual machines
For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file. If you just want to quickly test the code from a git checkout, you can launch any of the commands like:
./virt-manager --debug ...
