[libvirt] [PATCH] virsh: Allow attach-disk to specify disk target bus

From: Yanbing Du <ydu at ydu-0.nay.redhat.com>

By default, the bus type is inferred from the style of the device
name('target' in this command), e.g. a device named 'sda' will
typically be exported using a SCSI bus. Actually, not only SCSI bus,
but USB/SATA bus also use this kind of device name. So add '--bus'
option for attach-disk command to allow user specify the target bus.

 Attach a new disk device to the domain.
 I<source> is path for the files and devices. I<target> controls the bus or
 device under which the disk is exposed to the guest OS. It indicates the

+"logical" device name; the optional I<bus> attribute specifies the type of

+I<driver> can be I<file>, I<tap> or I<phy> for the Xen
 hypervisor depending on the kind of access; or I<qemu> for the QEMU emulator.
 Further details to the driver can be passed using I<subdriver>. For Xen
 I<subdriver> can be I<aio>, while for QEMU subdriver should match the format
