(2.10) Hotplug: cmdlib support

Hotplugging is done by functions invoked by ApplyContainerMods(). In
order hotplugging to take place the --hotplug option must be passed
otherwise the modifications will take place after reboot.

NIC hotplug supports add, remove and modify. The modify is done by removing...

(2.10) Hotplug: rpc support

Introduce new RPC that eventually invoke hypervisor specific
hotplug functions. In order to be generic it has the following
arguments: device type, action, device, extra info, seq.
Device type can be NIC or DISK, action can be ADD, REMOVE,...

(2.10) Return link_name in blockdev_assemble rpc

Until now this RPC returned only dev_path. Since we use it in
hotplug we have to know the simlink of the device so that we
pass it to the corresponding hypervisor command and include it
in block_devices entry in runtime files....

(2.10) Extract socket related code from QmpMonitor class

(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....

(2.10) Helper methods that check for hotplug support

Hotplug is currently not supported for:

- KVM < 1.0
 - existing devices in the cluster
 - python-fdsend module is not installed (NIC hotplug)
 - chroot (Disk hotplug)
 - security mode other than None (Disk hotplug)...

(2.10) Use -device with pci info if possible

Disks and NICs.

(2.10) Helper methods for PCI slots and device ids

Device naming:
QEMU monitor expects devices to be uniquely named. Device ids derive
from the following function:
kvm_devid = <device_type>-<part of uuid>-pci-<pci_slot>
Device ids must be reproduce-able when we want to remove them....

(fix) Remove uri slot from block_devices

In stable-2.10 we have userspace access mode for rbd. Backend
calculates uri along with link and dev_path. Thus we have
three items in block_devices and kvm_disks tuples.

We this patch we remove the third value.

(2.10) Prepare block_devices runtime entry

With this patch we add another entry in runtime files along with
kvm_cmd, kvm_nics, and hvparams. block_devices that used to be
encapsulated inside kvm_cmd, live now separately just like nics do
but in tupples of (L{objects.Disk}, dev_path)....
