[libvirt] [PATCH v2 0/4] Add support for QEMU guest agent control

[Michal Privoznik]

These patches are taken from here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-October/msg00135.html

I've just rebased and polished them.

The QEMU guest agent "/usr/bin/qemu-ga" has some handy functions
for controlling the guest, not least, shutdown/reboot and filesystem
freeze/thaw.

In Fedora 15/16 the semantics of the ACPI power button have been
changed to suspend-to-RAM which breaks our current shutdown
implementation.

By adding support for the agent we gain a more predictable way
to shutdown / reboot guests.

NB: the code currently has the same "flaw" as the monitor, in
so much as we wait forever for a guest agent reply. We need to
add a timeout ability to the agent code
