This patch-set introduces new event and emits it in
qemuDomainRevertToSnapshot.

v3:
[2/2] event is emited only in the case when stopped domain
   is reverted to a stopped domain.

   Introduce new VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_DEFINED_FROM_SNAPSHOT sub-event

This seems to be a reasonable approach; however, since Peter understands
the snapshot code better than I do, I expect he will want to chime in
(I've CC'd him).

It does seem though it's important to note somehow in the documentation
of the new event that it is only useful for the offline -> offline
revert.  Think patch 1's comment and commit message.

w/r/t patch 2 - the new else statement ...

  * Don't see any way that event could be defined...
There will be VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STOPPED event for transitions 4,7 (from running/paused to stopped).

  * Doesn't seem to matter if the FORCE flag was used or not

so it seems just an "else if (config)" could be done.
