The 'windows_path' function was blindly copied from virt-cat. In
virt-cat, errors are checked by the caller to 'windows_path'. But
virt-edit lacks this check. Change the function in virt-edit to add a
check and exit on error.

This adds standard LICENSE and BUGS sections to all of the man pages
that are processed by podwrapper.
Modify all the calls to $(PODWRAPPER) to add the right --license
parameter according to the content. Note that this relaxes the
license on some code example pages, making them effectively BSD-style
licensed.
(cherry picked from commit 2f97bf873b)
section.
Ensure each man page contains consistent COPYRIGHT and AUTHOR
sections.
Remove the LICENSE section. We will add that back in podwrapper in a
later commit.

This file handles the -d option for guestfish and other C command line
utilities. Renaming this file makes it less confusing.
(cherry picked from commit 6054051a9d)
The new API splits orderly close into a two-step process:
if (guestfs_shutdown (g) == -1) {
/* handle the error, eg. qemu error */
}
guestfs_close (g);
Note that the explicit shutdown step is only necessary in the case
where you have made changes to the disk image and want to handle write
errors. Read the documentation for further information.
This change also:
- deprecates guestfs_kill_subprocess
- turns guestfs_kill_subprocess into the same as guestfs_shutdown
- changes guestfish and other tools to call shutdown + close
where necessary (not for read-only tools)
- updates documentation
- updates examples

Replace:
cp tests/guests/fedora.img test.img
with the longer but possibly more space-efficient equivalent:
qemu-img create -F raw -b tests/guests/fedora.img -f qcow2 test.qcow2
(cherry picked from commit 339f3647f8)
This avoids conflicts with the globally installed libguestfs
appliance, or lets us build in multiple local directories at the same
time without conflicts.
Turn:
=item B<-a> | B<--all>
into:
=item B<-a>
=item B<--all>
This gives a more natural-looking manual page, as well as making it
easier to directly link to these sections.
This moves the tool programs into a single directory:
cat/* -> tools/virt-cat
df/* -> tools/virt-df
edit/* -> tools/virt-edit
rescue/* -> tools/virt-rescue
This in itself simplifies the build process because we only need
one Makefile and one copy of 'run-locally'.
'run-*-locally' has become just 'run-locally' and takes an extra
parameter which is the name of the tool, eg:
run-locally cat [virt-cat params...]
virt-inspector stays in its own directory, because this contains
more than just a single Perl script.
Edit any file in a guest. This was possibly previously
using guestfish, but having a separate command makes it
simpler.
The usage is simply:
virt-edit mydomain /some/file
It runs $EDITOR or vi on the file, and if the user changes
it, uploads the result back to the VM.
