[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: match controller index for LIVE+CONFIG when doing hotplug

An attempt to attach a new scsi controller with both --live and --config but without specifying an index, e.g.: <controller model="virtio-scsi" type="scsi" /> led to this error: internal error: Cannot parse controller index -1 This was because unspecified indexes are auto-assigned during virDomainDefPostParse(), which doesn't happen for hotplugged devices until after the device has been added to the domainDef, but qemuDomainAttachFlags() makes a copy of the device (for feeding to qemuDomainAttachDeviceLive() *before* it's added to the config, and the copying function actually formats the device object and then re-parses it into a new object. Since qemuDomainAttachDeviceConfig() consumes the device object pointer (i.e. sets it to NULL in the original virDomainDeviceDef) we can't just wait to make the copy. Instead, we need to make a *shallow* copy of the virDomainDeviceDef prior to qemuDomainAttachDeviceConfig(), then make a deep copy of the shallow copy.
