Daniel P. Berrange c57e3d8994 Introduce basic infrastructure for virtlockd daemon 
The virtlockd daemon will maintain locks on behalf of libvirtd.
There are two reasons for it to be separate

 - Avoid risk of other libvirtd threads accidentally
   releasing fcntl() locks by opening + closing a file
   that is locked
 - Ensure locks can be preserved across libvirtd restarts.
   virtlockd will need to be able to re-exec itself while
   maintaining locks. This is simpler to achieve if its
   sole job is maintaining locks

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
