Michal Privoznik 7cfb7aab57 security_util: Remove stale XATTRs
It may happen that we leave some XATTRs behind. For instance, on
a sudden power loss, the host just shuts down without calling
restore on domain paths. This creates a problem, because when the
host starts up again, the XATTRs are there but they don't reflect
the true state and this may result in libvirt denying start of a
domain.

To solve this, save a unique timestamp (host boot time) among
with our XATTRs.

Michal Privoznik f45c97eac2 tools: Slightly rework libvirt_recover_xattrs.sh
Firstly, there's no reason to enumerate all XATTRs since they
differ only in the prefix and we can construct them in a loop.

Secondly, and more importantly, the script was still looking for
just one prefix "trusted.libvirt.security" even on FreeBSD.

Michal Privoznik 1845991d9b tools: Provide a script to recover fubar'ed XATTRs setup
Our code is not bug free. The refcounting I introduced will
almost certainly not work in some use cases. Provide a script
that will remove all the XATTRs set by libvirt so that it can
start cleanly.
