Commit 1778352 from [email protected] in branch 'vcl/trunk'
[ https://svn.apache.org/r1778352 ]

VCL-1008
Added code and uncommented existing code to libvirt.pm::capture to save a .xml 
file in the image library and repository locations when an image is captured.

Added libvirt.pm::get_master_xml_info which reads the .xml file and convert it 
to a hash reference.

Updated libvirt.pm::generate_domain_xml to attempt to retrieve the disk and 
network interface types from the master XML file for an image revision.

Updated libvirt.pm::get_master_image_file_path to prevent it from ever 
returning the path to the .xml file saved for an image.

> Extend libvirt/KVM modules to use device settings from captured VM

>
> The {{libvirt.pm}} and {{KVM.pm}} provisioning modules are hard-coded to 
> configure VMs with an IDE disk and the default rtl8139 network interface.  If 
> an image is captured from a VM which is configured with better devices such 
> as virtio, VMs created from the image should also be configured with the same 
> device types.
> The capture sequence will need to be extended to save the captured VM's 
> hardware in a text file.  There is already code to do so.
> The load sequence will be extended to read the text file for the image 
> revision if it exists and use the values it contains.
