The more I think about this 'feature' that allows you to omit parts of
the changed XML, the weirder it gets.

Maybe the other way around (checking first - with respect to what was
specified in the XML, then overwriting) might be cleaner, see below.

This is an insufficient way to copy the address. The 'addr' union might
be containing an address of a different type. And the 'info.type' attribute also
needs to be copied, either 1) manually or via a 2) DeviceInfoCopy call.

Also, the checks can be moved to a separate fuction first (qemuDomainChangeNet
is over 400 lines long now), e.g. qemuDomainChangeNetAllowed.

Then either:
1) change the unconditional copy of the attributes not present in newdev
   to call another helper (DeviceInfoCopyIfNeeded? MaybeCopy?) that only fills
   the missing parts; or
2) Make qemuDomainChangeNetAllowed only look at specified attributes and
   move the DeviceInfoCopy call after it. (Also, to prevent memory
   leaks, the original info should be cleared before calling copy)
