From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>
In daemons using pidfiles to protect against concurrent
execution there is a possibility that a crash may leave a stale
pidfile on disk, which then prevents later restart of the daemon.
To avoid this problem, introduce a pair of APIs which make
use of virFileLock to ensure crash-safe & race condition-safe
pidfile acquisition & releae
* src/libvirt_private.syms, src/util/virpidfile.c,
src/util/virpidfile.h: Add virPidFileAcquire and virPidFileRelease
