With virt-manager application, it is possible to add inactive node
devices(eg: mediated device) in host system to guest system. But it is
impossible to start a guest system with inactive node devices. Also,
it is not yet possible to start a node device with virt-manager
application. So, the user cannot use the inactive node devices.
This patch disables the "finish" button and provides a tip, when
inactive node devices are selected. So, it is not possible to add
inactive node devices to the guest system.

The MDEV devices listed in the "Add New Virtual Hardware" page, are a
concatenation of parent device name and MDEV device name, eg:
css_0_0_0014 mdev_b204c698_6731_4f25_b5f4_894614a05ec0_0_0_0014. The
parent name is duplicated in here, as the MDEV device name itself includes
a part of the parent name in libvirt version 7.8.0 and later. So, this patch
changes the MDEVs listed in "Add New Virtual Hardware" page to only display
the MDEV device
name(eg:mdev_b204c698_6731_4f25_b5f4_894614a05ec0_0_0_0014), when the
new naming convention is used.

Enable virt-manager GUI to support add, edit, remove, hot-plug and
hot-unplug of mediated devices (like DASDs, APQNs and PCIs) in virtual
server.
It is not possible to edit MDEV when a virtual server is in
running state, as this is not supported by libvirt.

Provide support to add/remove MDEV in a guest domain, which is in
shut-off or running state (hotplug/unplug). Also support update of
already existing MDEV device, when the guest domain is in shut-off
state. Please note that libvirt does not support update of MDEV
device, when the guest domain is in running state.

Add support to install a virtual server with passed-through mediated
device. Mediated device can be created using vGPU attached to
vfio_pci driver or DASD attached to vfio_ccw driver or APQNs attached
to vfio_ap driver.
