[libvirt] [PATCH 2/7] python: Implement virStreamSend/RecvAll helpers

Pure python implementation. The handler callbacks have been altered
a bit compared to the C API: RecvAll doesn't pass length of the data read
since that can be trivially obtained from python string objects, and SendAll
requires the handler to return the string data to send rather than
store the data in a string pointer.
