[libvirt] [PATCH 2/3] Improve error reporting with LXC controller
From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com>
The LXC code would read the log file if an LXC guest failed to
startup. There were a number of failure cases where the guest
will not start and libvirtd never gets as far as looking at the
log file.
Fix this by replacing some earlier generic errors with messages
from the log.
