We're only adding only info about L3 caches, we can add more
later (just by changing one line), but for now that's more than enough
without overwhelming anyone.
XML snippet of how this should look like (also seen as part of the commit):
<cache>
<bank id='0' level='3' type='both' size='8192' unit='KiB' cpus='0-7'/>
</cache>

The parser had been clearing out *all* suggested device names for
type='direct' (aka macvtap) interfaces. All of the code implementing
macvtap allows for a user-specified device name, so we should allow
it. In the case that an interface name starts with "macvtap" or
"macvlan" though, we do still clear it out, just as we do with "vnet"
(which is the prefix used for automatically generated tap device
names), since those are the prefixes for the names we autogenerate for
macvtap and macvlan devices.

Make the schema more strict for HTTP disks requiring a name and
mandating exactly one source host.
ftp/tftp entries were not moved here, since http transport also will
support cookies and other options, which will be added later.
This patch introduces
<cache level='N' mode='emulate'/>
<cache mode='passthrough'/>
<cache mode='disable'/>
sub element of /domain/cpu. Currently only a single <cache> element is
allowed.

There's lot more to document about the nodedev driver, besides PCI and
SR-IOV (even this might need to be extended), but let's start small-ish
and at least have a page for it linked from the drivers.html.

Since we do have this template at hand, why not using it wherever
possible (list of supported pool types and remote access section).
Also, perform some stylistic micro adjustments.

We are currently parsing only rx/frames/max because that's the only
value that makes sense for us. The tun device just added support for
this one and the others are only supported by hardware devices which
we don't need to worry about as the only way we'd pass those to the
domain is using <hostdev/> or <interface type='hostdev'/>. And in
those cases the guest can modify the settings itself.

docs/schemas directory is meant for schemas which are installed on the
system. The schema for the news file does not need to be installed.
Store it along with the file it describes for simplicity.
qemu requires that the topology equals to the maximum vcpu count.
Document this along with the API to set maximum vcpu count and the XML
element.

Creating dummy <change> elements was a workaround for the
HTML DTD not allowing empty <ul> elements, but we can do
better by tweaking the the XSLT stylesheet.
Now that the source file is validated against a schema that
only allows the <code> HTML tag to be used, we can rely on
that assumption to simplify our XSLT stylesheet.
After the release it's necessary to add a new <release> section for the
upcoming release. Add a template so that it does not have to be
compiled over and over again.
Pool types that have the VIR_STORAGE_POOL_SOURCE_NAME flag set
allow omitting the <name> element and instead fill out the pool name
from the <source><name> element.
Relax the schema to make <name> optional for these pools.
Expressing that at least one of these is required is out of scope
of the schema.
Commits 29f7b5ea6a and 5edf9aaf54 pushed them incorrectly at the end of
the file in the bug fixes section for libvirt 2.5.0.

When reading release notes, patch summary is not always the best
description of what users can expect in new version. I propose
changing it slightly so that it describes what exactly happens and
when.
However, we do not have to add every single code change to the news
file, that would be ridiculous and unreadable for users. If the patch
subject needs changes like this one, I'm rather tempted to say that
such changes should not be in the news file at all. So that would be
the other way how to fix this.

This brings the libvirt version of this RNG file in line with the same
file in netcf (as soon as the corresponding patch there is ACKed and
pushed).
There's no reason to require it when defining an interface (the config
option it corresponds to is optional), and it isn't even output in the
status of an interface.
