[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix virPipeReadUntilEOF on more than 1024 bytes of data

This is a bug I found while testing the smbios support, it uses virPipeReadUntilEOF to read the stdout of the exec'ed dmidecode process and this failed to capture the full output. It read only 1024 bytes. The problem is that this is based on a poll loop, and in the loop we read at most 1024 bytes per filedescriptor, but we also note in the loop if poll indicates that the process won't output more than that on that fd by setting finished[i] = 1. The simplest way is that if we read a full buffer make sure finished[i] is still 0 because we will need another pass in the loop.
