[libvirt] [PATCH 03/14] Close all non-stdio FDs in virt-login-shell (CVE-2013-4400)

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

We don't want to inherit any FDs in the new namespace
except for the stdio FDs. Explicitly close them all,
just in case some do not have the close-on-exec flag
set.
