Max,

Code looks ok. Two tests (virsh-checkpoint and virsh-snapshot) are
failing, but they are also failing on master, thus I say this patch get a
pass because it didn't break anything else.

The snapshot-create operation of running guests saves the live
XML and uses it to replace the active and inactive domain in
case of revert. So, the config XML is ignored by the snapshot
process. This commit changes it and adds the config XML in the
snapshot XML as the <inactiveDomain> entry.

In case of offline guest, the behavior remains the same and the
config XML is saved in the snapshot XML as <domain> entry. The
behavior of older snapshots of running guests, that don't have
the new <inactiveDomain>, remains the same too. The revert, in
this case, overrides both active and inactive domain with the
<domain> entry. So, the <inactiveDomain> in the snapshot XML is
not required to snapshot work, but it's useful to preserve the
config XML of running guests.
