[libvirt] [PATCH] add fullscreen support to qemu sdl xml (via fullscreen='true' attribute for the graphics element)

Sure - probably not a good idea to send patches at such a late hour anyway
:)
Attached diff.

Some more details:
For those using SDL ("for some crazy reason" as Berrange put it in the
original patch), there is a use for the fullscreen option, causing the
qemu window to open in full screen, change resolution, etc.
This patch accepts an additional attribute in the graphics element:
<graphics type='sdl' display=':0.1' xauth='/root/.Xauthority'
fullscreen='true'/>

If fullscreen is true, "-full-screen" is added to the qemu command line
(unlike the display and auth which are added as environment variables)
