(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) 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....

(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)....

(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) Hotplug: objects and constants additions

Add pci slot in NIC/Disk objects. This slot will be used only
by hypervisor code. Currently only KVM will use it and store it
temporarily in runtime files.
Add HOTPLUG_* constants to define device types an hotplug actions....

(2.10) Introduce _GenerateKVMBlockDevicesOptions()

Simply move logic that generates block device related
options out of _GenerateKVMRuntime().

NOTE: Back-port corresponding commit from stable-2.10

- 2.8 does not have user-space access support for rbd

(2.10) Prepare kvm options to support -device for disks

Newer kvm version support -device driver,... option where available

(2.9) Refactor NIC configuration scripts

Add new script vif-ganeti that could be used instead of
default vif-bridge in order NIC customization can be more
flexible.

Extract common code from kvm-ifup and insert it in a new
file net-common that is being sourced by kvm-ifup and...

(2.9) Document vif-ganeti usage

In order to be able to use it as vif-script one has to
create a symbolic link inside /etc/xen/scripts pointing
to /usr/lib/ganeti/vif-ganeti and then add is a hypervisor
parameter.
