Based on discussions elsewhere in the thread, I'm not sure there is a
compelling reason for any API additions in this respect anymore. We
are going to put all the logic directly in the virNetworkDestroyFlags
method impl now. This addition about enumerating macvtap devices was
only needed when virsh was trying todo the logic
