https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1398087 Clean up the virsh man page description for --pool-create-as in order to better describe how the various arguments are used when creating (or defining) a logical pool. Also modify the storage pool XML parsing algorithm to check for the mismatched "name" and "source-name".
