With this patch as-is, shaping rules are applied only when creating
TAP
devices. This mean only network types VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK
and
VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_BRIDGE.

Huh, I didn't know it is possible to have a pool of devices within one
<network>. So in this case, this patch silently does nothing.
The IFB (Intermediate Functional Block) allows you to
configure aggregate QoS on multiple interfaces.
