The goal is to provide a read-only virInterface provider when netcf is
unavailable. With this patchset it makes virt-manager happy enough that it
does not attempt to do anything with HAL to figure out the host's network
devices.

All patches but 4/5 are really ready for prime time. 4/5 can get merged but it
is somewhat incomplete. With regards to bond and devices in a bridge. The
patches are all at different versions depending on how many times they've hit
the list.

Doug Goldstein (5):
  interface: add udev based backend for virInterface
  interface: fix netcf based backend naming
  interface: always build all available backends
  interface: add virInterfaceGetXMLDesc() in udev
  interface: add udevIfaceIsActive() to udev backend
