[libvirt] [PATCH 00/10] conf: Clean up virDomain*Def creation

This series is required to solve a known limitation in the current incarnation of device isolation support[1], namely the inability to isolate host devices coming from IOMMU group 0. The issue lies in the fact that virDomainDeviceInfo, and all virDomain*Def that embed it, are usually allocated through VIR_ALLOC(), which result in all their fields being initialized to zero. That's worked out just fine so far, because zero was a sensible default value for all existing fields; however, when implementing isolation groups, we add a new virDomainDeviceInfo::isolationGroup field which we need to be initialized to -1 instead so that it doesn't overlap with IOMMU group 0 mentioned above. Solving the issue involves creating twenty or so virDomain*DefNew() functions and using them instead of VIR_ALLOC() every time a virDomain*Def needs to be created, which is arguably a pretty good idea regardless. The series could probably be organized so that eg. the patch order makes more sense, but honestly I'm pretty tired right now and I just don't have it in me. Moreover, the goal of the series and its implementation are both straighforward enough that I feel reviewers will have no problem following along. My main concern with this series is that, while converting from VIR_ALLOC() to virDomain*DefNew(), I might simply have missed some instances. That would not cause any issue right away, but once we introduce isolation groups it would lead to suboptimal PCI addresses being allocated at best, and to perfectly legitimate hotplug requests being denied at worst. The fact that the test suite[2] passes gives me a lot of confidence that I haven't overlooked anything, but if anyone has clever ideas on how to be actually sure rather than merely confident please do let me know.
