Hi,

SLIRP networking can be running in a separate process. This allows for
stricter security policies for QEMU & SLIRP, as SLIRP is notoriously
not very safe (discussed on ML, various CVEs, and even the code says
so explicitly in the comments), yet people rely on it for various
reasons.

With this series, for a network interface "user", libvirt will:
- check the slirp-helper presence and capabilites (see [1])
- setup a socket pair between qemu and the helper
- use -net socket
- setup migration thanks to dbus-vmstate

There are no changes required to domain configuration to benefit
it. "guestfwd" isn't supported at this point, but it is known to be in
a broken state with libvirt+qemu anyway.

The dbus-vmstate is being proposed to QEMU.

The libslirp-rs slirp-helper hasn't yet received a release. The
current DBus p2p mode works ok, but is a hack. This is due to poor
DBus support in Rust, and also relatively poor DBus p2p mode support
in libdbus.

fwiw, I have been working on an alternative rust-only implementation
of a slirp-helper that will also follow [1], but I am now wondering if
netstack or vpnkit could do the job.

I've made all the changes I'm suggesting, ACKed and pushed. Sorry for taking it so long to review.

One thing though, this deserves a release note. Can you cook something please? See docs/news.xml for more info.
