Micro-optimization: POSIX guarantees that the constant STDIN_FILENO
works here, which is slightly more efficient than fileno(stdin).
Problem: this closes fd 0 after virFileReadLimFD, even though the user
probably wants to keep on using stdin (especially if stdin is a tty, and
EOF was triggered by ^D although the terminal still accepts input). You
have to avoid closing the fd if "-" was present.
Question: is this sufficient? That is, do all virsh.c callers that read
file contents eventually call into this function, or do you need to also
hook up some other locations to honor "-"?
