This patch extends the filter XML to support priorities of chains
in the XML. An example would be:

<filter name='allow-arpxyz' chain='arp-xyz' priority='200'>
[...]
</filter>

The permitted values for priorities are [-1000, 1000].
By setting the pririty of a chain the order in which it is accessed
from the interface root chain can be influenced.

Missing documentation in docs/formatnwfilter.html.in.  I'll live up to
my hard-line reputation on this one, and request a v6 with documentation
(for example, it's worth documenting whether priority 100 is accessed
before or after priority 200).

I have such a patch much further down the queue. I'll pull the relevant parts into v6.
But as to the code...

Let's use virStrToLong_i() instead of sscanf(); much nicer on the error
handling aspect.

Done.

Is this comment still accurate, now that you have an XML attribute?

Fixed.

That means an explicit pririoty='0' by the user is eaten and does not
appear on the output.  But that's not too bad, and as long as we
document that priority is 0 unless explicitly specified, we're covered
(hence my plea for documentation...)

Everything else looks okay.
