Currently, if we want to zero out disk source (e,g, due to
startupPolicy when starting up a domain) we use
virDomainDiskSetSource(disk, NULL). This works well for file
based storage (storage type file, dir, or block). But it doesn't
work at all for other types like volume and network.

So imagine that you have a domain that has a CDROM configured
which source is a volume from an inactive pool. Because it is
startupPolicy='optional', the CDROM is empty when the domain
starts. However, the source element is not cleared out in the
status XML and thus when the daemon restarts and tries to
reconnect to the domain it refreshes the disks (which fails - the
storage pool is still not running) and thus the domain is killed.

diff to v1:
- Free more struct entries
- Set disk type
- Call the function less frequently

I think that instead of all the above you should just call
virStorageSourceClear(). It also clears the format of the volume,
seclabels, encryption data and all other stuff which is relevant only
for the image itself.

+    src->type = VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE;

And then fix the type.

ACK with the change above. I think this should be safe for freeze.

Yeah, I think too, but lets not push it. This is a very narrow use case so our users will not suffer. I'll push it after the release. But thank you anyway.
