[libvirt] [PATCH 4/4] Implement virDomainSendProcessSignal for LXC driver

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange at redhat.com>

Implement the new API for sending signals to processes in a guest
for the LXC driver. Only support sending signals to the init
process for now, because

 - The kernel does not appear to expose the mapping between
   container PID numbers and host PID numbers anywhere in the
   host OS namespace
 - There is no race-free validate whether a host PID corresponds
   to a process in a container.

* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c: Allow sending processes signals
