Dmitrii Shcherbakov 38003e7551 Add PCI VPD-related helper functions to virpci
Add helper functions to virpci to provide means of checking for a VPD
file presence and for VPD resource retrieval using the PCI VPD parser.

The added test assesses the basic functionality of VPD retrieval while
the full parser is tested by virpcivpdtest.

==============================
Libvirt API for virtualization
==============================

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management
daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the
API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other
languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as
mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.

Further information about the libvirt project can be found on the
website:
