[libvirt] [RFC 0/2] util: introduce timeout mode in virCommandRun/Async and virKModLoad

[Shi Lei]

Hi, everyone!
It's possible that the running-time of a command is long than its caller
expected. Perhaps, it's useful to provide timeout mode for virCommandRun or
virCommandRunAsync + virCommandWait. And The caller can restrict the
running time of the command if necessary. I introduce a new function
virCommandSetTimeout for that.

And then, virKModLoad will get a default timeout of 3 seconds. I hope it
could solve the problem of "strange delay" as John mentioned.

Thanks!
