call of logging methods when one of the operands is a literal string.

A new Python checker was added to warn about "inconsistent return
statements" [1]. A function or a method has inconsistent return
statements if it returns both explicit and implicit values.

The `pylint-3` executable is provided by the python3-pylint rpm
package on Fedora.
For Debian the equivalent is `pylint3`.
On Arch Linux the default version of Python is 3.
Pylint lints for the version of Python it is running. Instead of
spawning an executable, import the `pylint.lint` module and call
`Run()`.

Make check_support() accept a list of features.
This will let tests have more complex conditions on the features they
require.

If we try to run the testsuite on anything older than libvirt 3.1,
it immediately throws an exception before processing any tests,
due to choking on parsing drm bits from testdriver.xml. This global
failure is only due to sloppy coding though.
Turn all test cases that use testdriver.xml into skips in this case,
so we can at least get some test coverage otherwise.
Right now, most test cases will create a libvirt test driver using
tests/testdriver.xml. This is problematic for 2 reasons:
1) testdriver.xml is 3500 lines of XML, and it's parsed hundreds of
times. Opening it is responsible for about 25% of test suite time
2) Older libvirt chokes on testdriver.xml, meaning the test suite will
be useless there. This is a recurring problem as new features are
added to testdriver.xml
Most test cases don't actually need all the test state in testdriver.xml
though. So this creates a smaller testsuite.xml which has a lower
libvirt requirement and is much quicker to parse. New XML bits should
continue to go into testdriver.xml so we can keep testsuite.xml as
the more stripped down option.
Moves the libxml2 bits to a separate xmlapi file and class, a bunch
of cleanups to xmlbuilder internals dealing with XML stuff.
The main point is to experiment with different XML library impls,
since libxml2 is unfun to deal with and we are having python3
issues like

Could mean a code error but more likely is just slightly racy
UI bits disappearing that we weren't looking for anyways, so hide
it behind a debug statement
