Cole Robinson 927a7ef265 cli: Add --metadata option
Can take name, description, uuid, and title (new). This deprecates the
separate --description and --uuid element, but we won't require it for
specifying a name with virt-install/virt-image since that's quite
overkill. Allowing --name with this option is mostly for the benefit
of virt-xml.

and uses that option.

Martin Kletzander 54c6bb6bd1 Add controller example into virt-install manual page
There was an example for USB controller, but to show all the
sub-options, there was the master= option used without extra
information about the fact that it is used for companion controllers
only.  So this patch adds second example in front of the previous one
and re-words the description a little bit.

Cole Robinson 7ae458f1ba virt-install: Error if -c <uri> specified
-c maps to --cdrom for virt-install, but for other libvirt tools like
virsh it maps to --connect.

Handle -c and --cdrom a little differently: if -c contains '://',
error out with an explanation. User can work around it by using
--cdrom. This could in theory break some users, but the change they
make will be backwards compatible.

Martin Kletzander 590c8dbebf Don't support sparse logical volumes
Sparse logical volumes are supported by libvirt, but only in case the
user takes care of the reallocation, which is not what virt-install
and virt-manager users want.  This patch defaults the logical volumes
to non-sparse ones and makes sure allocation is always equal to
capacity for such volumes.
