[libvirt] [PATCH 1/4] snapshot: new query APIs

Right now, starting from just a virDomainSnapshotPtr, and wanting to
know if it is the current snapshot for its respective domain, you have
to use virDomainSnapshotGetDomain(), then virDomainSnapshotCurrent(),
then compare the two names returned by virDomainSnapshotGetName().
It is a bit easier if we can directly query this information from the
snapshot itself.

Right now, it is possible to filter a snapshot listing based on
whether snapshots have metadata that would prevent domain deletion,
but the only way to learn if an individual snapshot has metadata is
to see if that snapshot appears in the list returned by a listing.
Additionally, I hope to expand the qemu driver in a future patch to
use qemu-img to reconstruct snapshot XML corresponding to internal
qcow2 snapshot names not otherwise tracked by libvirt (in part, so
that libvirt can guarantee that new snapshots are not created with
a name that would silently corrupt the existing portion of the qcow2
file); if I ever get that in, then it would no longer be an all-or-none
decision on whether snapshots have metadata, and becomes all the more
important to be able to directly determine that information from a
particular snapshot.

Other query functions (such as virDomainIsActive) do not have a flags
argument, but since virDomainHasCurrentSnapshot takes a flags argument,
I figured it was safer to provide a flags argument here as well.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSnapshotIsCurrent)
(virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata): New declarations.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotIsCurrent)
(virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata): New functions.
* src/libvirt_public.syms (LIBVIRT_0.9.13): Export them.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSnapshotIsCurrent)
(virDrvDomainSnapshotHasMetadata): New driver callbacks.
