A new FS driver type 'proxy' is added to QEMU 9p server. This patch adds
support for using proxy FS driver from libvirt.
QEMU proxy FS driver uses socket for communicating between helper and qemu
proxy FS driver. Proxy helper (a stand alone binary part of qemu) is invoked
with one of the descriptors created using socketpair call and the share path.
Similarly QEMU is invoked with another descriptor created using the same
socketpair system call and with other required FS driver parameters.
Need for proxy FS driver
========================
Pass through security model in QEMU 9p server has following issues:
1) TOCTTOU vulnerability: Following symbolic links in the server could
provide access to files beyond 9p export path.
2) Running QEMU with root privilege could be a security issue (pass
through security model needs root privilege).
Proxy FS driver is implemented to solve these issues.
Proxy FS uses chroot + socket combination for securing the vulnerability
known with following symbolic links. Intention of adding a new filesystem
type is to allow qemu to run in non-root mode, but doing privileged
operations in a chroot environment using socket IO.
Proxy helper is invoked with root privileges and chroots into 9p export path.
QEMU proxy fs driver sends filesystem request to proxy helper and receives the
response from it.
Proxy helper is designed such a way that it needs only few capabilities related
to filesystem operations (such as CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, CAP_FOWNER, etc) and all
other capabilities are dropped (CAP_SYS_CHROOT, etc)

Changes from previous version
* Remove the xml node for specifying the virtfs-proxy-helper, now it is
determined from qemu binary.
