First up, now I see the way this works out, I think this is the correct
approach for hostonly networks, but I think I was wrong about internal
networking - your original proposal for the 'internal' network worked
better.
So, just remove the 'TODO internal network' bits from this patch and
go back to adding a type='internal' to the domain_conf.c parser for
<interface> tags.

We shouldn't change these two files - just use VIR_NETWORK_FORWARD_NONE
for the hostonly network.

Trying this out on my test box, it appears that the network interface
for the hostonly network is kept offline, until a guest is started.
We should match this in the virNetwork API driver impl here. So if the
interface is offline, report it in an impl of vboxListDefinedNetworks
and vboxNumOfDefinedNetworks, instead of these 2.
This would make the 'virsh net-list --inactive' operation work.
