The parameter 'device_weight' is a string, however, the 'VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING'
type condition is missed by libvirt_virDomain{Set, Get}BlkioParameters bindings,
the result is we can't get or change 'device_weight' value.

* python/libvirt-override.c: Add missing 'VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING' condition into
libvirt_virDomain{Set, Get}BlkioParameters bindings and free allocated memory.

IMHO this is not right, anything returned by PyString_AsString should
*not* be deallocated. It doesn't returns a copy but a pointer reference.
Note that Python still wants to see "params[i].value.s", and I guess
Python will be responsiable to do the cleanup. But I'm not quite
convinced about that, not formiliar with Python's memory management.
Yeah, I know python.org says "PyString_AsString() must not be deallocated, because its
pointer refers to the internal buffer of string, not a copy." in here, I want o free the contents
of string, may be free(val) is more clear.

Why it needs to descrease the reference count of "key" and "val"?
PyDict_SetItem() puts something in a dictionary is "storing" it, therefore PyDict_SetItem() INCREFs both the key and the value.

params[i].value.s also needs to be free()'ed in default branch, before
the function returns.
I don't think so,  if 'default' branch is hit, it means "params[i].type != VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING", in other words, codes haven't called  'PyString_FromString()' method, hence we don't need to free memory, please correct me if I'm wrong :)

Thanks for your comments again,
