When libvirt is starting a domain, it reports the state as SHUTOFF

it's RUNNING. This is not ideal because domain startup may take a long
time (usually because of some configuration issues, firewalls blocking
access to network disks, etc.) and domain lists provided by libvirt look
awkward. One can see weird shutoff domains with IDs in a list of active
domains or even shutoff transient domains. In any case, it looks more
like a bug in libvirt than a normal state a domain goes through.
I recently noticed similar behavior in the libxl driver when starting
large memory domains, which can take considerable time.

After going through all hypervisor drivers it seems none of them needs
to be updated. That is, this patch matches the one I sent as RFC for
design discussions.

Cool. I'll use this in libxlDomainStart() in the libxl driver.

I'm no expert in the qemu driver code, but this looks sane to me. ACK.
