[Libvir] PATCH: Fix const-ness for attach/detach device APIs
virDomainAttachDevice and virDomainDetachDevice both take a char * for the XML description, but this is mistakenly not declared to be const. This patch fixes the public header files & all the internal drivers. NB, yes this is in the public API, no it won't break any apps since these are input params only.
