[libvirt] [PATCH v4 0/2] qemu: add debug-threads support

QEMU (somewhere around 2.0) added a new sub-option to the -name flag
-name debug-threads=on

This causes the naming of individual QEMU threads to be helpful; e.g.
 'CPU/KVM 0' or 'migration' these show up in top once the H key is
 pressed, and also show up in a core dump, making it easy to figure
 out which thread is which.

The following 2 patches add a capability check and enable
debug-threads if supported.

cheers

v3->v4:
- simplify a bit command generation
- added a test

v2->v3:
- move -name command generation in seperate function
- fix syntax-check
- fix leak

v1->v2:
- drop the configuration, enable debug-thread automatically
