Re: [PATCH 1/3] domain_conf: Added configs for RSS and Hash report.

Added "rss" and "rss_hash_report" configuration that should be used with qemu virtio RSS. Both options are triswitches. Used as "driver" options and affects only NIC with model type "virtio". In other patches - options should turn on virtio-net RSS and hash properties.
