Laine Stump 4ee2b31804 Changes to clock timer XML to match final design.
The clock timer XML is being updated in the following ways (based on
further off-list discussion that was missed during the initial
implementation):

1) 'wallclock' is changed to 'track', and the possible values are 'boot'
 (corresponds to old 'host'), 'guest', and 'wall'.

2) 'mode' has an additional value 'smpsafe'

3) when tickpolicy='catchup', there can be an optional sub-element of
   timer called 'catchup':

   <catchup threshold=123 slew=120 limit=10000/>

Those three values are all longs, always optional, and if they are present,
they are positive. Internally, 0 indicates "unspecified".

* docs/schemas/domain.rng: updated RNG definition to account for changes

* src/conf/domain_conf.h: change the C struct and enums to match changes.

* src/conf/domain_conf.c: timer parse and format functions changed to
                          handle the new selections and new element.

* src/libvirt_private.syms: *TimerWallclock* changes to *TimerTrack*

* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: again, account for Wallclock --> Track change.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
