[libvirt] Release of libvirt-2.3.0

We are a little late but that allowed us to catch a regression before it impacted the release :) I have tagged the release in git, pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ I also pushed the associated python bindings release available at: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/python/ This is a release of moderate size, around 250 commits, with a balance of features bugs fixes and improvements: Features: - Improvements on CPU models (Jiri Denemark) - More performance metrics and events (Qiaowei Ren, John Ferlan) Documentation: - docs: correct version requirements for <kvm><hidden='on'/></kvm> (Laine Stump) - doc: fix note about Xen credit scheduler (Jim Fehlig) - Fix various code comment typos (Nitesh Konkar) - cpu: Document missing parameters for cpuCompare* (Jiri Denemark) - libvirt-nodedev.c:fix a typo (Nitesh Konkar) - libvirt-admin.c:fix a typo (Nitesh Konkar) - driver.c:fix a typo (Nitesh Konkar) - domain_conf.c:fix the comment.
