Attached is a patch which implements option 4. If no <driver> block is
supplied, then we continue existing behavior of using file: for file backed
disks, and phy: for block backed disks. Any of the following are then valid:

  <driver name='file'/>                ->     file:
  <driver name='phy'/>                 ->     phy:
  <driver name='tap'/>                 ->     tap:aio:
  <driver name='tap' type='aio'/>      ->     tap:aio:
  <driver name='tap' type='qcow'/>     ->     tap:qcow:

The only supported names are 'file', 'phy' & 'tap'. If the name is 'tap'
then it is valid to use an additional 'type' attributte.  We don't do
any checking on cotents of 'type' attribute, it is just passed straight
through to xend, since the blktap driver has a wide variety of types
available. When fetching XML from libvirt  you are now guarenteed to
be given a <driver> block in each disk.

The patch was rather tedious, because not only did the blktap stuff change
the prefix used on file paths in the (uname) SEXPR block, but it actually
changed the entire enclosing block from (vbd ...) to (tap ...) for some
crazy reason.

I'm not attaching them here because it would bloat the patch, but I've written
a tonne more testfiles for the xml <-> sexpr conversions to validate the 
patch is operating correctly.

Dan.
