Overall, it looks like it does what you say.  But it may be worth a v6.

Looks like my comments on v4 4/10 would apply here as well - a patch
11/10 that refactored things to use a shell variable initialized once up
front, instead of passing repetitive command names through %s all over
the place, might make this generator easier to follow.  But not a
problem for the context of this patch.  This hunk adds 6 printf args,

and this hunk has no net effect, but generates a string which will be
handed as the format string to yet another printf?  Wow, that's a bit
hard to follow...

Using VIR_EXPAND_N instead of VIR_REALLOC_N would take care of this
memset for you.

...If I followed things correctly, commandTemplate now has exactly two
print arguments, %c and %s.  But looking further, it looks like you
already have other commandTemplate uses just like this.

Refer to my review earlier in the series about adding a comment how
priority is in a bounded range, so the subtraction is safe.

Why do a virHashLookup, when you already have filter_names[i].value?
(See, I knew there was a reason to return key/value pairs).
