This eliminates the warning message reported in:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=624447

It was caused by a failure to open an image file that is not
accessible by root (the uid libvirtd is running as) because it's on a
root-squash NFS share, owned by a different user, with permissions of
660 (or maybe 600).

The solution is to use virFileOpenAs() rather than open(). The
codepath that generates the error is during qemuSetupDiskCGroup(), but
the actual open() is in a lower-level generic function called from
many places (virDomainDiskDefForeachPath), so some other pieces of the
code were touched just to add dummy (or possibly useful) uid and gid
arguments.

Eliminating this warning message has the nice side effect that the
requested operation may even succeed (which in this case isn't
necessary, but shouldn't hurt anything either).

After all that churn on 1/2, this one has just been patiently waiting,
unchanged.  That shows that once we get a good interface, using it is
easier.

ACK.

And hopefully we can use it to clear up some other similar problems.

Pushed. Thanks!
