[libvirt] [PATCH 3/3] storage: Fix checking whether source filesystem is mounted

Right now, we use simple string comparison both on the source paths
(mount's output vs pool's source) and the target (mount's mnt_dir vs
pool's target). The problem are symlinks and mount indeed returns
symlinks in its output, e.g. /dev/mappper/lvm_symlink. The same goes for
the pool's source/target, so in order to successfully compare these two
replace plain string comparison with virFileComparePaths which will
resolve all symlinks and canonicalize the paths prior to comparison.
