[libvirt] [PATCH 15/22] API: new virNodeDeviceReAttachFlags

The virNodeDeviceDettach() API recently required an update via the
addition of a "driver" and "flags" argument in the new
virNodeDeviceDetachFlags() API. This was initially done so that the
user could specify which stub driver was to be attached (with a new
"driver" char* argument), and a flags argument was added for good
measure. The flags argument has now been put to good use in order to
specify whether all devices in the same group as the specified device
should also be detached.

It turns out that, although the driver name isn't required for
virNodeDeviceReAttach() (since it can be found by looking at the
device's driver binding), it *is* necessary to provide a "reattach
entire group" flag. Because of this, we now also need a new
virNodeDeviceReAttachFlags() API, which is otherwise identical to
virNodeDeviceReAttach(). A single flag is defined for this new API:

 VIR_NODE_DEVICE_REATTACH_GROUP

The effect of this flag is the following: If this device was bound to
the vfio-pci driver, only re-attach it to its host driver if all other
devices in the same group are also not assigned to any guest, and in
that case re-attach *all* devices in the group that are currently
attached to the vfio-pci driver to their respective host drivers. (In
practice this is actually much less confusing than it sounds in this
explanation).
