virsh vol-upload/download disallow negative offset
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1087104 Commit id 'c6212539' explicitly allowed a negative value to be used for offset and length as a shorthand for the largest value after commit id 'f18c02ec' modified virStrToLong_ui() to essentially disallow a negative value. However, allowing a negative value for offset ONLY worked if the negative value was -1 since the eventual lseek() does allow a -1 to mean the end of the file. Providing other negative values resulted in errors such as: $ virsh vol-download --pool default qcow3-vol2 /home/vm-images/raw \ --offset -2 --length -1000 error: cannot download from volume qcow3-vol2 error: Unable to seek /home/vm-images/qcow3-vol2 to 18446744073709551614: Invalid argument $ Thus, it seems unreasonable to expect or allow a negative value for offset since the only benefit is to lseek() to the end of the file and then only take advantage of how the OS would handle such a seek. For the purposes of upload or download of volume data, that seems to be a no-op. Therefore, disallow a negative value for offset. Additionally, modify the man page for vol-upload and vol-download to provide more details regarding the valid values for both offset and length.
