This patchset extends arguments completion for virsh commands. Currently only for domain related (start, destroy, etc.) and 'help'. But if community is satisfied with this little part I'll write follow up patches for other commands as well. This means that for command start not only pre-defined options will be generated (autodestroy, console, paused) but names of inactive domains too. However, this requires virsh to be already connected to daemon. Completers for commands can be easily defined as they follow readline logic. Basically, completer returns on each call one string (=possible argument/option) and it's called repeatedly until NULL is returned. To generate only corresponding values for given prefix, there is @text variable in function prototype. There is also @state variable that is set to zero on the 1st call and to non-zero on any subsequent calls, so completer can set it internal structures.
