Perhaps my fault for first suggesting that we modify <alias> at the
device_conf level, but I like the idea of tracking a hashtable at the
qemu private level that maps back to <alias> as needed.

Looks good to me. We may want more information on a given fdset, but
that can be added later. If we need more than a alias->set number, we
would instead hash an alias->struct, with XML looking something like:
<fdsets>
<entry alias='ide0-0-0' fdset='1'>
<source>/path/to/disk.img</source>
<fd id='4' mode='rdonly'/>
<fd id='5' mode='rdwr'/>
</entry>
</fdsets>
But again, without knowing whether we need extra information, your
proposal is fine for now.
