[Libvirt-cim] [PATCH] libxkutil: Handle vnc password when retrieving domain XML

+1 and pushed.

BTW - Prior to this change, libvirt-cim was using the info store 
(has_vnc_passwd) for persisting the fact the password was set. It 
appears we can now remove that logic since the XML contains this data.

For reference:
Virt_VirtualSystemManagementService.c ~1548 sets has_vnc_passwd
Virt_RASD.c ~457 fetches has_vnc_passwd

Objections?
