Upstream has moved to virXMLPropTristateSwitch() meanwhile.

Usually, when I'm introducing new XML knob I include a xml2xml test case
within the same patch to demonstrate that parser and formatter are
working. It's okay to introduce such test case in a separate patch too,
but looks like you're not doing that either.

Let me fix that just before merge.
