[libvirt] [PATCH v4 06/14] qemu_ns: Allow /dev/mapper/control for PR

If qemu-pr-helper is compiled with multipath support the first
thing it does is opening /dev/mapper/control. Since we're going
to be running it inside qemu namespace we need to create it
there. Unfortunately, we don't know if it was compiled with or
without multipath so we have to create it anyway.

BTW: This might be the ugliest piece of code I've ever written
but @devMapperControl really needs to be type of char * otherwise
some crazy check in VIR_APPEND_ELEMENT fails.
