[PATCH v3 1/3] virFile: Add APIs for extended attributes handling

[Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, only three wrappers are being implemented:
virFileSetAttr for setting attributes
virFileGetAttr for querying attributes (note we need to call it twice,
first time to get length of attribute value, second to get actual value)
virFileRemoveAttr for removing attributes

diff to v2:
-drop multiple check for libattr
