It doesn't make sense to fail if the SCSI host device is specified

if the device is specified as "shareable" for *all* domains,
otherwise it fails).
To fix the problem, this patch introduces an array for virSCSIDevice
struct, which records all the names of domain which are using the
device (note that the recorded domains must specifiy the device as
shareable). And the change on the data struct brings on many
subsequent changes in the code.
Since prior to this patch, the "shareable" tag didn't work as expected,
it actually work like "non-shareable". If there was a live domain using
the SCSI device with "shareable" specified, then after upgrading
(assuming the live domain keep running during upgrading) the older
libvirt (without this patch) to newer libvirt (with this patch), it may
cause some confusion when user tries to start later domains as
"shareable". So this patch also added notes in formatdomain.html to
declare the fact.
* src/util/virscsi.h:
- Remove virSCSIDeviceGetUsedBy
- Change definition of virSCSIDeviceGetUsedBy and virSCSIDeviceListDel
- Add virSCSIDeviceIsAvailable
* src/util/virscsi.c:
- struct virSCSIDevice: Change "used_by" to be an array; Add
"n_used_by" as the array count
- virSCSIDeviceGetUsedBy: Removed
- virSCSIDeviceFree: frees the "used_by" array
- virSCSIDeviceSetUsedBy: Copy the domain name to avoid potential
memory corruption
- virSCSIDeviceIsAvailable: New
- virSCSIDeviceListDel: Change the logic, for device which is already
in the list, just remove the corresponding entry in "used_by". And
since it's only used in one place, we can safely removing the code
to find out the dev in the list first.
- Copyright updating
* src/libvirt_private.sys:
- virSCSIDeviceGetUsedBy: Remove
- virSCSIDeviceIsAvailable: New
* src/qemu/qemu_hostdev.c:
- qemuUpdateActiveScsiHostdevs: Check if the device existing before
adding it to the list;
- qemuPrepareHostdevSCSIDevices: Error out if the not all domains
use the device as "shareable"; Also don't try to add the device
to the activeScsiHostdevs list if it already there; And make
more sensible error w.r.t the current "shareable" value in
driver->activeScsiHostdevs.
- qemuDomainReAttachHostScsiDevices: Change the logic according
to the changes on helpers.
