qemuProcessStop: Remove image metadata for running mirror jobs
If user starts a blockcommit or a blockcopy then we modify access for qemu on both images and leave it like that until the job terminates. So far so good. Problem is, if user instead of terminating the job (where we would modify the access again so that the state before the job is restored) calls destroy on the domain or if qemu dies whilst executing the block job. In this case we don't ever clear the access we granted at the beginning. To fix this, maybe a bit harsh approach is used, but it works: after all labels were restored (that is after qemuSecurityRestoreAllLabel() was called), we iterate over each disk in the domain and remove XATTRs from the whole backing chain and also from any file the disk is being mirrored to.
This would have been done at the time of pivot, but it isn't because user decided to kill the domain instead. If we don't do this and leave some XATTRs behind the domain might be unable to start.
Also, secdriver can't do this because it doesn't know if there is any job running. It's outside of its scope - the hypervisor driver is responsible for calling secdriver's APIs.
Moreover, this is safe to call because we don't remember labels for any member of a backing chain except of the top layer. But that one was restored in qemuSecurityRestoreAllLabel() call done earlier. Therefore, not only we don't remember labels (and thus this is basically a NOP for other images in the backing chain) it is also safe to call this when no blockjob was started in the first place, or if some parts of the backing chain are shared with some other domains - this is NOP, unless a block job is active at the time of domain destroy.
