(2.10) Check if hotplug is supported in CheckPrereq

Introduce new RPC hotplug_supported that invokes the corresponding
hypervisor's method which checks if hotplug is generally
supported. Call this RPC early in CheckPrereq() and abort if
hotplug is not supported. Currently only KVM hypervisor with...

(2.10) drive_del after device_del in disk hot-remove

This is needed so that qemu process really releases the
corresponding file descriptor and thus we can dmsetup/lvremove
the device without errors.

(2.10) Make hotplug related method raise HotplugError

Hotplug is not supported by default and thus we raise
HotplugError() for hotplug related methods.
If a hypervisor wants to support it, we must override VerifyHotplugSupport()
and implement the Hot* method....

(2.10) Some fixes in _GenerateKVMBlockDevicesOptions()

  • Add docstring.
  • fix missed usecase of boot_disk=False if kernel_path is given.
  • Use devlist arg in GenerateKVMBlockDeviceOptions()
    This is previously calculated in _ExecuteKVMRuntime()
    so there is no need to rerun the same command....

(2.10) Introduce hotplug methods (hypervisor inteface)

4 new methods: HotAddDevice, HotDelDevice, HotModDevice, HotplugSupported
All these are the hypervisor interface with the backend.
In general they read current runtime info, do the actual hotplug
and update the runtime file....

arguments: device type, action, device, extra info, seq.
Device type can be NIC or DISK, action can be ADD, REMOVE,...
