[libvirt] The libvirt Release Notes Game, v3.0.0 edition

Hello everyone, and welcome to the libvirt Release Notes Game, v3.0.0 edition! Here's the deal: libvirt v3.0.0 is right around the corner, and so it's about time we get the release notes into shape. Most of the work has thankfully already been done during the development cycle, by bundling release notes entries with the code that implements the actual changes; however, some changes have managed to fly under the radar so far. Not documenting them properly in the release notes would be a disservice to our users, and would undersell what is once again a terrific release - I'd venture as far as calling it the best one of 2017! I've gone through all the commits between v2.5.0 and now, and highlighted the changes that look like they should be part of the release notes. Look for your name in the list below, and spend a few minutes to craft a beautiful release notes entry for each of the highlighted changes, then send the patch to the list as usual. Feel free to CC: me for a guaranteed[1] swift review! Please note that, unlike you, I don't have intimate knowledge of each and every line of code you've ever contributed to libvirt, and as such might have misjudged the weight and scope of the commits listed below, but that's the whole point: the only person worthy of documenting a change in the release notes is the author of the change himself! That said, if you feel that any of the changes below should not end up in the release notes feel free to raise an objection :) Happy documenting! ^^   * Cédric Bosdonnat     - a30b08b   libxl: define a per-domain logger.     - 340bb6b   libxl: add QED disk format support   * Collin L.
