[libvirt] [PATCHv2 06/13] Make virtual network netmasks optional

Laine Stump laine at laine.org

When a netmask isn't specified for an IPv4 address, one can be implied
based on what network class range the address is in. The
virNetworkDefPrefix function does this for us, so netmask isn't
required.

V2 Changes:

* Any prefix arg is now unsigned int rather than int.
