Although the virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfo will update the
target.physical value, there is no way to provide that information
via the virStorageGetVolInfo API since it only returns the capacity
and allocation of a volume. So as described in commit id '0282ca45',
it should be possible to generate an output only <physical> value
for that purpose.
This patch generates the <physical> value in the volume XML output
for the sole purpose of being able to view/see the value to allow
someone to parse the XML in order to obtain the value.
Update the documentation to describe the output only nature.

In the website reorg we accidentally lost all links to the nice
reformatted news.html file. Add a link on the front page, and
also extend the download page table so that it includes links
to API docs and news files for each module (where available)

The github.com/rgbkrk/libvirt-go bindings were the most complete
bindings historically, but their API coverage stops at 1.2.4,
with exception of a couple of newer APIs.
The new bindings at http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-go.git;a=log
how have (almost[1]) 100% API coverage all the way to 2.5.0. They also
expose the APIs in a way that allows for much stronger go type
checking by the compiler, and expose typed parameters as explicit
structs. Finally the bindings are able to conditionally compile against
any libvirt version 1.2.0 -> 2.5.0 without use of go build tags.
Change the docs to point to these new bindings, since they'll be
a better bet for users long term.
[1] virEvent & virStream callbacks are still TODO to be fixed
real soon.

Documents in formatdomain.html that when migrating a guest
defined with the host-passthrough CPU model from a machine that
is running on a newer CPU model than the destination machine's
CPU model, it is very likely that the guest will crash upon
arrival.

Seems commit id '0257d06b' forgot to include formatstorage when updating
the docs to describe allowing zfs as a pool type and to furthermore note
that the pool's target path element will be generated rather than read.
Similarly commit id 'efab27afb' neglected to indicate that the target path
for a logical pool will now be generated by libvirt.

When changing one of the src/libvirt-*.c files to alter the docs, the
adjusted files weren't being built. Added them into APIBUILD_STAMP and
then added that to the html/index.html rule which is used for the
$(apihtml_generated) generated rule.
Also, for clean we can remove the html/*.html files
So far the NSS module looks up only hostnames as provided by
guests themselves. However, there are some cases where this is
not enough: e.g. when there's a fresh new guest being installed
(with some generic hostname) say from a live ISO image; or some
(older) systems don't advertise their hostname in DHCP
transactions at all.
In cases like that it would be helpful if we translate domain
name as seen by libvirt too so that users can:
# virsh start $dom && ssh $dom
In order to achieve that new libvirt-guest module is introduced,
while older libvirt module maintains its current behaviour (that
is translating guest provided names into IP addresses).

With the QEMU components in place, provide the XML parsing to
invoke that code when given the following XML snippet:
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi_host'>
<source protocol='vhost' wwpn='naa.501234567890abcd'/>
</hostdev>
An optional address element can be specified within the hostdev
(pick CCW or PCI as necessary):
<address type='ccw' cssid='0xfe' ssid='0x0' devno='0x0625'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>
Add basic vhost-scsi tests which were cloned from hostdev-scsi-virtio-scsi
in both xml2argv and xml2xml. Added ones for both vhost-scsi-ccw and
vhost-scsi-pci since the syntaxes are slightly different between them.
Also adjusted the docs to describe the changes.

New line character in name of storagepool is now forbidden because it
mess virsh output and can be confusing for users.
Validation of name is done in driver, after parsing XML to avoid
problems with dissappeared pools which was already created with
new-line char in name.
