Here is a first cut of the patch for review.  I have minimally tested 
the "get" side of the patch, e.g. virsh dumpxml <some_hvm_domain>.  Have 
not tried the "put" side, e.g. virsh create.  I hope to test/fix the 
create side tomorrow as well as test the get side with more interesting 
configurations.

I haven't quite decided on how to handle the cdrom yet.  I'm hardly and 
expert on libxml so perhaps someone can suggest how to elegantly extract 
the cdrom info from the incoming xml :-).  See the TODO related to cdrom 
in xml.c.

Jim
