This ensures the Guest object domcaps cache is primed as well, which
prevents the CPU security features handling from constantly refetching
domcaps info.
We need to tweak the cache invalidation check in Guest to handle
some of the test suite hackery we do

During startup virtinst.StoragePool.build_default_pool() tries to
determine whether the default storage pool already exists. Because
events have not yet been processed, the list of existing storage pools
is still empty. Therefore it seems as if it does not exist yet and
build_default_pool() falls back to creating it which causes an error
message from libvirtd in the system log:
libvirtd: operation failed: pool 'default' already exists with uuid.
Move default pool creation after event processing to avoid these
redundant creation attempts.

Init a shared log instance in virtinst/logger.py, and use that
throughout the code base, so we aren't calling directly into
'logging'. This helps protect our logging output from being
cluttered with other library output, as happens with some
'requests' usage
qemu nowadays should reject the common cases here with its default
image locking. Our impl wasn't very good anyways so let's just leave
it up to the lower layers
Libvirt nowadays will throw an explicit warning about this
exact situation. It doesn't guide people to virt-manager UI, but
then again it should be obscure enough that it doesn't warrant this
special corner case code to inform the user
Having this at set_uefi time complicates the domain XML building
machinery, where we don't want things to have osinfo access.
Rearrange it so that editing cases call this explicitly, and
the XML builder just deals with it at the set_defaults time
It's hard to validate whether something like --extra-args or
--initrd-inject is supported based on the command line arguments. It's
easier to let the installer.py figure it out because it's the
authoritative source
This adds a field in gsettings and preferences UI to enable
XML editing. It's off by default. The XML tab page is still visible,
but the textview is not editable, and there's a warning at the top:
XML editing is disabled in 'Preferences'.
Only enable it if you know what you are doing.
When the setting is enabled, the warning goes away and the textview
is editable. This puts a roadblock up for people that don't know what
they are doing, but still advertises the feature and keeps the
UI surface difference fairly small between on/off states.
Handling this is a bit different from other bits, because:
1) the <device> editing paradigm is unique. We need to replace the
device in line in the XML which is a new operation
2) the New VM customize pattern is tricky and needs lots of
special handling
The XML editor ui is a two tabbed notebook, one 'Details' tab
and one 'XML' tab. The latter has a gtksourceview and allows editing
the raw libvirt XML for whatever the selected object is.
API users will programmatically insert the xmleditor notebook into
their UI, with the existing UI under the details tab.
