[Libvir] Support non-bridged network configs
The current code for parsing/serializing VIFs only really deals with the default bridged networking config for Xen. So if one uses network-route or network-nat it completely breaks. There is also no support for dealing with IP address in the XML / SEXPR. The attached patch fixes both of these issues, so we should be able to deal with any of the standard Xen networking configs.

Sounds fine to me, it's just a bit surprizing that the order of script and mac are inverted compared tp previous. That should be equivalent though so it's not a big deal.

Yeah, it shouldn't be a big deal since XML doesn't really care about ordering of child elements. That said, it was trivial to re-arrange the code to keep generating elements in the original order, so I made that change before committing to CVS. I also added a bunch more test data files to validate the routed networking configs are working correctly.
