This API returns the leases information stored in the DHCP leases
file of dnsmasq for a given virtual network. It contacts the
bridge network driver, which parses a custom leases file created
by libvirt.
It supports two methods:
1. Return info for all network interfaces connected to a given
virtual network
2. Return information for a particular network interface in a
given virtual network by providing its MAC Address
v7
* Just rebased and resent
v6
* Converted parsing mechanism to JSON.
Leases helper program has been added as a separate patch

Refer:

v5
* Created a helper file to generate custom leases for libvirt. Since dnsmasq
doesn't provide the MAC Address in case of DHCPv6, the need for this file
was proposed. The design of virNetworkDHCPLeases struct has been updated and
the previous use of union has been removed. OOM errors have been taken care
of in the remote driver and remote daemon.

v4
* Added support for DHCPv6, updated lease file parsing method
Refer:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-September/msg01554.html
v3
* Mostly small nits, change in MACRO names, use of virSocketAddrGetIpPrefix to
retrieve IP prefix from @dom XML.
Refer:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-September/msg00832.html
v2
* Since DHCPv6 is supposed to be suported in future, virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC
changed, prefix and virIPAddrType added in virNetworkDHCPLeases struct.
Refer:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-September/msg00732.html
v1
* Refer:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-September/msg00620.html
* The need for these APIs were result of a RFC was proposed on the list.
