One thing which is very apparent is that sys admins using libvirt /
virsh have a great deal of difficulty understanding "where the
configuration files have gone" and how to edit them.
This patch adds a "virsh edit <domain>" command which is basically the
equivalent of:
virsh dumpxml dom > /tmp/dom.xml
$EDITOR /tmp/dom.xml && virsh define /tmp/dom.xml
but with much more sanity checking. The editor is $EDITOR or vi, and
it does the right thing if the user doesn't modify the file, or if
another user edits the configuration at the same time.
