Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v3 4/4] domain_conf: autodetect vhostuser ifname

This change puts the socket filename as ifname for vhostuser netwok
interface.
The filename is the name of the openvswitch interface, this allows the
qemuDomainInterfaceStats to work out of the box without having to
manually set the ifname.

I don't think this is a good idea. For instance, for the following XML:
<interface type='vhostuser'>
<mac address='52:54:00:ee:96:6b'/>
<source type='unix' path='/tmp/vhost0.sock'
mode='server'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
</interface>
this code would produce ifname of "vhost0.sock", which is obviously
wrong. Moreover, tests are failing with this change. Not only that, for
auto-filling values in XML we have so called post parse callbacks.
Historically we put everything into XML parsing code and it ended up
being this one big mess. So we worked hard to split it and although we
are not there 100%, we are getting there slowly.

Ah, due to me not reviewing the patches early, this function was renamed
in c2a5a4e7ea930.
return def;
