[PATCH 04/12] storage: acquire a pidfile in the driver root directory

[Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>]

When we allow multiple instances of the driver for the same user
account, using a separate root directory, we need to ensure mutual
exclusion. Use a pidfile to guarantee this.

In privileged libvirtd this ends up locking

   /var/run/libvirt/storage/driver.pid

In unprivileged libvirtd this ends up locking

  /run/user/$UID/libvirt/storage/run/driver.pid

NB, the latter can vary depending on $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
