  That's where things starts to be nasty, why ext2, and not say ext3,
then someone surely will want ext4 or xfs :-)
I'm afraid we probably need to implement those 4 and give them different
enums (below).

  Hum, I'm not so sure, CREATE_FORMAT == BUILD_REPAIR + BUILD_RESIZE
which after all sounds a plausible combination, I would use different
bits in the field, so set VIR_STORAGE_POOL_CREATE_FORMAT to 4.

  But now we need to cope with EXT3/EXT4/XFS variants, they should
probably be allocated on separate bits even if they are mutually
exclusive

  We are really testing for the bit :-)

  I think the core is there but we probably need to expand the format
options (detection at configure time sounds sufficient to me), most of
the code addition in virStorageBackendFileSystemBuild() can probably be
factorized for the diffferent formats. That should not be hard :-)

  thanks !
