    qga: add guest-set-user-password command · 215a2771

    Add a new 'guest-set-user-password' command for changing the password
    of guest OS user accounts. This command is needed to enable OpenStack
    to support its API for changing the admin password of guests running
    on KVM/QEMU. It is not practical to provide a command at the QEMU
    level explicitly targetting administrator account password change
    only, since different guest OS have different names for the admin
    account. While UNIX systems use 'root', Windows systems typically
    use 'Administrator' and even that can be renamed. Higher level apps
    like OpenStack have the ability to figure out the correct admin
    account name since they have info that QEMU/libvirt do not.
    
    The command accepts either the clear text password string, encoded
    in base64 to make it 8-bit safe in JSON:
    
    $ echo -n "123456" | base64
    MTIzNDU2
    $ virsh -c qemu:///system  qemu-agent-command f21x86_64 \
       '{ "execute": "guest-set-user-password",
          "arguments": { "crypted": false,
                         "username": "root",
                         "password": "MTIzNDU2" } }'
      {"return":{}}
    
    Or a password that has already been run though a crypt(3) like
    algorithm appropriate for the guest, again then base64 encoded:
    
    $ echo -n '$6$n01A2Tau$e...snip...DfMOP7of9AJ1I8q0' | base64
    JDYkb...snip...YT2Ey
    $ virsh -c qemu:///system  qemu-agent-command f21x86_64 \
       '{ "execute": "guest-set-user-password",
          "arguments": { "crypted": true,
                         "username": "root",
                         "password": "JDYkb...snip...YT2Ey" } }'
    
    NB windows support is desirable, but not implemented in this
    patch.
