[libvirt] [PATCH V2 2/2] Don't autogenerate seclabels of type 'none'

When security drivers are active but confinement is not enabled,
there is no need to autogenerate <seclabel> elements when starting
a domain def that contains no <seclabel> elements. In fact,
autogenerating the elements can result in needless save/restore and
migration failures when the security driver is not active on the
restore/migration target.

This patch changes the virSecurityManagerGenLabel function in
src/security_manager.c to only autogenerate a <seclabel> element
if none is already defined for the domain *and* default
confinement is enabled. Otherwise the needless <seclabel>
autogeneration is skipped.

V2: Don't autogenerate a seclabel if domain does not contain one
    and confinement is disabled.
