[libvirt] [PATCH v2 3/4] storage: Better describe logical pool creation/definition parameters

[John Ferlan]

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1398087

Clean up the virsh man page description for --pool-create-as in order
to better describe how the various arguments are used when creating
(or defining) a logical pool.

Also modify the storage pool XML parsing algorithm to check for the
mismatched "name" and "source-name".
