[libvirt] [PATCH] nodedev: update netdev feature bits before each dumpxml

As with several other attributes of devices (link status, sriov VF
list, IOMMU group list), the detdev feature bits aren't automatically
updated in the nodedev driver's cache when they change. In order to
get a properly up-to-date list when getting the XML of a device, we
must reget them in update-caps prior to each dumpxml.

I dislike needing to put in the virBitmapFree and set the pointer to
NULL before re-getting the features, but leaving it out would lead to
a leak of the old bitmap, and I'm not sure I want
virNetDevGetFeatures() to assume a valid pointer when it starts (it
currently assumes the pointer contents is junk, and overwrites it with
a newly allocated *virBitmap).
