Implement unix domain socket consoles for libvirt
For this change to work for you, you'll need to either disable
apparmor or alter the libvirt templates to allow access to
/tmp. You also need to change the value of the
console_log_type flag to "domain". Console logs are then passed
from libvirt to nova-compute with a unix domain socket. This
allows us to implement console log file rotation.
This change also makes the way file system elements are shared
with libvirt configurable. You can specify a chmod value for
those elements (the previous implementation), or a group to
chgrp to which is shared by nova-compute and libvirt. If
neither option is specified, nova-compute will refuse to start
if using the libvirt hypervisor driver.
This change also slightly refactors how all console logging in
libvirt works, but there are no functional changes to "file"
style logging.
New flags:
console_log_type
max_rotated_consoles
libvirt_shared_file_mode
libvirt_shared_group
libvirt_shared_noop
DocImpact
SecurityImpact: this should reduce the amount of unbounded
growth we see in libvirt console log files.
