Hmmm..., maybe this is not direct for us. However, i am not sure
about what kind of "rename" command we need. Actually, i am
investigating what kind of "rename" we need. Let me give another
way.

Only change the name of volume and need not copying and
deleting volume. To back-end storage volume(Offline storage),
Libvirt just call relevant storage driver and the storage volume(with
a volume name) is created by back-end storage driver. If we wanna
change the volume name without copying and deleting, we may
need give hook function to let back-end driver to realize relevant
driver for rename stuffs.

Danpb, thanks for your comments very much.
