[libvirt] [PATCHv2 2/2] virsh: new net-update command (two string version)

This new virsh command uses the new virNetworkUpdate() API to modify
an existing network definition, and optionally have those
modifications take effect immediately without restarting the network.

An example usage:

  virsh net-update mynet add-last ip-dhcp-host \
   --xml "<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55' ip='192.168.122.45'/>" \
   --live --config

If you like, you can instead put the xml into a file, and call like
this:

  virsh net-update mynet add ip-dhcp-host --file /tmp/myxml.xml
   --live --config

(You must specify either --xml or --file, but not both.)

A --parent-index option is also available (to give the index within a
list of parent objects, e.g. the index of the parent <ip> element when
updating ip-dhcp-host elements), but is optional and at least for now
will probably be used rarely.

--live, --config, and --current options - if you specify --live, only
the live state of the network will be updated. If you also specify
--config, then the persistent configuration will also be updated;
these two commands can be given separately, or both together. If you
don't specify either (you can optionally specify "--current" for the
same effect), then the "current" config will be updated (i.e. if the
network is active, then only its live config is affected, but if the
network is inactive, only the persistent config is affected).
---

Changes in V2: This has addressed the problems Eric found in V1, and
changed the option handling.

+Update a the given section of an existing network definition, with the
+changes optionally taking effect immediately, without needing to
+destroy and re-start the network.
+
+I<command> is one of "add-first", "add-last", "add" (a synonym for
+add-last), "delete", or "modify"
+
+I<section> is one of ""bridge", "domain", "ip", "ip-dhcp-host",
+"ip-dhcp-range", "forward", "forward-interface", "forward-pf",
+"portgroup", "dns-host", "dns-txt", or "dns-srv", each section being
+named by a concatenation of the xml element hierarchy leading to the
+element being changed. For example, "ip-dhcp-host" will change a
+<host> element that is contained inside a <dhcp> element inside an
+<ip> element of the network.
+
+I<--xml> I<string> is the text of a complete xml element of the type being
+changed (e.g. "<host mac="00:11:22:33:44:55' ip='1.2.3.4'/>".
+I<--file> I<string> is the name of a file that contains a complete xml
+element. Either --xml or --file must be specified, but not both.
+
+The I<--parent-index> option is used to specify which of several
+parent elements the requested element is in (0-based). For example, a
+dhcp <host> element could be in any one of multiple <ip> elements in
+the network; if a parent-index isn't provided, the "most appropriate"
+<ip> element will be selected (usually the only one that already has a
+<dhcp> element), but if I<--parent-index> is given, that particular
+instance of <ip> will get the modification.
+
+If I<--live> is specified, affect a running guest.
+If I<--config> is specified, affect the next boot of a persistent guest.
+If I<--current> is specified, affect the current guest state.
+Both I<--live> and I<--config> flags may be given, but I<--current> is
+exclusive. Not specifying any flag is the same as specifying I<--current>.
