Hmm, okay, I'll thus also fix
qemuDomainStorageIdNew/qemuDomainStorageIdReset separately.

Not really. FDset ID '0' is valid in qemu. Starting from 1 has the nice
side effect of seeing that this counter was used, but that's not very
helpful and we have few tests adding multiple fdsets where it's possible
to see too, so I'll change it.
