When libvirtd starts it it will sanity check its own certs,
and before libvirt clients connect to a remote server they
will sanity check their own certs. This patch allows such
sanity checking to be skipped. There is no strong reason to
need to do this, other than to bypass possible libvirt bugs
in sanity checking, or for testing purposes.
libvirt.conf gains tls_no_sanity_certificate parameter to
go along with tls_no_verify_certificate. The remote driver
client URIs gain a no_sanity URI parameter
* daemon/test_libvirtd.aug, daemon/libvirtd.conf,
daemon/libvirtd.c, daemon/libvirtd.aug: Add parameter to
allow cert sanity checks to be skipped
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Add no_sanity parameter to
skip cert checks
* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c, src/rpc/virnettlscontext.h:
Add new parameter for skipping sanity checks independantly
of skipping session cert validation checks
