When passing a NULL tapfd argument to brAddTap, we need to close the fd
of the tap device. If we don't, libvirt will keep the fd open
indefinitely and renders the the guest unable to configure its side of
the tap device.

A Linux software bridge will assume the MAC address of the enslaved
interface with the numerically lowest MAC addr. When the bridge
changes MAC address there is a period of network blackout, so a
change should be avoided. The kernel gives TAP devices a completely
random MAC address. Occassionally the random TAP device MAC is lower
than that of the physical interface (eth0, eth1etc) that is enslaved,
causing the bridge to change its MAC.

This change sets an explicit MAC address for all TAP devices created
using the configured MAC from the XML, but with the high byte set
to 0xFE. This should ensure TAP device MACs are higher than any
physical interface MAC.

* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/uml/uml_conf.c: Pass in a MAC addr
  for the TAP device with high byte set to 0xFE
* src/util/bridge.c, src/util/bridge.h: Set a MAC when creating
  the TAP device to override random MAC

* global: patch created by running:
for f in $(git ls-files '*.[ch]') ; do
    cppi $f > $f.t && mv $f.t $f
done

Add the virStrncpy function, which takes a dst string, source string,
the number of bytes to copy and the number of bytes available in the
dest string.  If the source string is too large to fit into the
destination string, including the \0 byte, then no data is copied and
the function returns NULL.  Otherwise, this function copies n bytes
from source into dst, including the \0, and returns a pointer to the
dst string.  This function is intended to replace all unsafe uses
of strncpy in the code base, since strncpy does *not* guarantee that
the buffer terminates with a \0.

IFF_VNET_HDR is a tun/tap flag that allows you to send and receive
large (i.e. GSO) packets and packets with partial checksums. Setting
the flag means that every packet is proceeded by the same header which
virtio uses to communicate GSO/csum metadata.

By enabling this flag on the tap fds we create, we greatly increase
the achievable throughput with virtio_net.

However, we need to be careful to only set the flag when a) QEMU has
support for this ABI and b) the value of the flag is queryable using
the TUNGETIFF ioctl.

It's nearly five months since kvm-74 - the first KVM release with this
feature - was released. Up until now, we've not added libvirt support
because there is no clean way to detect support for this in QEMU at
runtime. A brief attempt to add a "info capabilities" monitor command
to QEMU floundered. Perfect is the enemy of good enough. Probing the
KVM version will suffice for now.
