[libvirt] [PATCH rfc] xml: Change virtual file names of xml documents parsed in memory

While parsing XML strings from memory, the previous convention in
libvirt was to set the virtual file name to "domain.xml" or something
similar. This could potentialy trick the user into looking for a file
named domain.xml on the disk in an attempt to fix the error.

This patch changes these filenames to something that can't be as easily
confused for a valid filename.

For the request for comments:

Shoud we use translation macros around these filename strings? It might be possible
to translate these messages in something meaningful in other languages.

Thanks for your comments.
