[et-mgmt-tools] [PATCH] Add libvirt storage browser

The attached patch adds a libvirt-storage-aware browser, to replace the
standard file chooser when adding storage on remote connections.
Screenshot here:

(Greyed out pools are inactive.)

In the near future, this will be enabled for local connections as well,
which will allow provisioning more complex storage on demand, as well as
encourage all storage to go through the libvirt APIs (while still
allowing the use of unmanaged storage through the 'Browse local' option,
or manually entering a path). Before we turn it on in the local case
though, default pool setup needs to be more configurable and robust.

Questions or comments appreciated.

Thanks,
Cole
