[libvirt] [PATCH v2 1/2] qemu: don't kill qemu process on restart if networkNotify fails

Nothing that could happen during networkNotifyActualDevice() could
justify unceremoniously killing the qemu process, but that's what we
were doing.

In particular, new code added in commit 85bcc022 (first appearred in
libvirt-3.2.0) attempts to reattach tap devices to their assigned
bridge devices when libvirtd restarts (to make it easier to recover
from a restart of a libvirt network). But if the network has been
stopped and *not* restarted, the bridge device won't exist and
networkNotifyActualDevice() will fail.

This patch changes networkNotifyActualDevice() and
qemuProcessNotifyNets() to return void, so that qemuProcessReconnect()
will soldier on regardless of what happens (any errors will still be
logged though).

Partially resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1442700
---

Change from V1: change networkNotifyActualDevice() so that it also
returns void (requested by jferlan).

I didn't remove the "error" label in that function though, both for
consistency with networkAllocateActualDevice(), and to avoid the large
number of changes (error ==> cleanup) that would do nothing more than
create opportunities for merge conflicts.
