Note that this code path doesn't remember that the old-style config was
used.

'source' can be declared here.

You'll also need to add a form of validation either in a separate commit
prior to this commit or into this commit which will reject unsupported
source types, such as VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_DIR, or VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_VOLUME
(and others) ... even VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_NETWORK at this point.

Since you don't remember that the old-style config was used and you
force it for all VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE configs the example [1] you added
in the commit message will work but will be reformatted.

Use virBufferAsprintf as we are not dealing with user-supplied data.

Use the 'virXMLFormatElement' instead, or add a boolean for the last
argument ...

And use just one invocation.

This bit doesn't seem to belong to this patch.
