As pointed on CVE-2011-1146, some API forgot to check the read-only
status of the connection for entry point which modify the state
of the system or may lead to a remote execution using user data.
The entry points concerned are:
- virConnectDomainXMLToNative
- virNodeDeviceDettach
- virNodeDeviceReAttach
- virNodeDeviceReset
- virDomainRevertToSnapshot
- virDomainSnapshotDelete
* src/libvirt.c: fix the above set of entry points to error on read-only
connections

We currently use the next free veid although there's one given in the
domain xml. This currently breaks defining new domains since vmdef->name
and veid don't match leading to the following error later on:
error: Failed to define domain from 110.xml
error: internal error Could not set UUID
Since silently ignoring vmdef->name is not nice respect it instead. We
avoid veid collisions in the upper levels already.
Apparently the xen block device statistics moved from
"/sys/devices/xen-backend/vbd-%d-%d/statistics/%s"
to
"/sys/bus/xen-backend/devices/vbd-%d-%d/statistics/%s"
* src/xen/block_stats.c: try the extra path in case of failure to
find the statistics in /sys
"virsh dominfo <vm>" crashes if there's no primary security driver set
since we only intialize the secmodel.model and secmodel.doi if we have
one. Attached patch checks for securityPrimaryDriver instead of
securityDriver since the later is always set in qemudSecurityInit().
