* tools/virsh.c (cmdEcho): New command.
(commands): Add it.
(vshCmdOptType): Add VSH_OT_ARGV.
(vshCmddefGetData): Special case new opt flag.
(vshCommandOptArgv): New function.

Not complete yet, but this shows what I'm thinking of. Adding the
echo command has two benefits:
1. It will let me add unit tests for the recent virsh command line
improvements - echo back arbitrary strings to make sure quoting is as
desired. This part works with what I have here, before I ran out of
time to finish this today.
2. Make it easier for a user on the command line to conver an
arbitrary string into something safe for shell evalution and/or XML
usage, by munging the input in a way that it can be reused in the
desired context. Not yet implemented; hence the RFC.
It exploits the fact that "--" is consumed as the end-of-options,
hence, there is no way for "" to be recognized as a valid option
name, so the only way we can encounter VSH_OT_ARGV is via the
new argv handling, at which point we can handle all remaining
command line arguments.
