These patches are all closely related, but each fixes a different

These all came out of Vasiliy's report that type='ethernet tap devices
were all offline and didn't have their IP address or routes added. He
sent a patch (which was an expanded version of 1/1), and the
modification to that patch, along with the other two patches, came out
of my review of his patch.

Laine Stump (2):
   qemu: remove unnecessary setting of tap device online state
   qemu: set tap device online for type='ethernet'

Vasiliy Tolstov (1):
   qemu: fix ethernet network type ip/route assign

Okay, I've pushed these three patches so there will be working type='ethernet' interfaces in the next release, and I'm working on patched that add:

   <source>
     <link state='down'/>
     ...
   </source>

to allow controlling the link state of the host side of the interface (the tap device in qemu, or the host side of the veth pair in lxc).

Thanks to Vasiliy for the report, patch, reviews, explanations, and idea to add host-side link state!
