This series does more general refactoring to help in the goal of killing
the big QEMU driver lock. There are 3 key changes in this series

 - Isolating all QEMU configuration parameters in one struct.
 - Making virDomainObjList self-locking
 - Add dedicated locking to PCI/USB device lists

There are all the really hard bits of the QEMU locking. As can be seen
from the last patch there is still more work to be done before the QEMU
driver lock can be said to be truely dead, but this is less critical.

In v3:

 - Rebase, since previous series no longer applied to GIT

In v2:

 - Rebase, since previous series no longer applied to GIT
