[PATCH 5/7] virsh: Edit inactive XML configuration of snapshot using snapshot-edit

[Kothapally Madhu Pavan <kmp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Now, snapshot-edit will allow editing inactive XML configuration of snapshot
along with active XML configuration. When --active-only flag is used the
inactive XML will not be displayed and will be removed from snapshot.
--active-only flag is used when user doesn't what any non-persistent
configuration in domain after restoring the snapshot.
