Add VIR_STORAGE_FILE_PLOOP format. This format is used to store disk images for virtual machines in PCS and containers in PCS, OpenVZ and also in Parallels Desktop for Mac.
This format is described on OpenVZ site - https://openvz.org/Ploop (together with ploop devices). It consists of XML descriptor and one or more image files: base image and deltas. Format of the image files described here: https://openvz.org/Ploop/format.
Hmm, so 'ploop' now refers to both a kernel device driver and also an image format ? I thought that historically 'ploop' was just a device driver, which in turn would support raw or qcow2, or <blah> image formats ?
