Linux + LVM supports device names like /dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-
followed by two concatenated UUIDs, firstly for the volume group and
secondly for the logical volume. We can reverse those to get the
device name (/dev/VG/LV).
fstab entries look like:
# / was on /dev/vg0/lv-0 during curtin installation
/dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-OzFWT6NHkstr1hcmrWRRMDGPn9xdZj1YOOycQ533186x288FdU6UubU3OlnWJz6D / ext4 defaults 0 1
# /usr was on /dev/vg0/lv-1 during curtin installation
/dev/disk/by-id/dm-uuid-LVM-OzFWT6NHkstr1hcmrWRRMDGPn9xdZj1YZu53m4ZssZ8Jeb3I14RAJwIj5YlHIb9P /usr ext4 defaults 0 1
The upshot of this fix is that we are now able to correctly inspect
and run virt-v2v on Ubuntu 22+ guests with split /usr. In particular,
we correctly map /etc/fstab entries like the above to LV device names,
which means that /usr merging now works correctly.

These were previously written in very convoluted C which had to deal
with parsing the crazy output of the "lvm" command. In fact the
parsing was so complex that it was generated by the generator. It's
easier to do this in OCaml.
These are basically legacy APIs. They cannot be expanded and LVM
already supports many more fields. We should replace these with APIs
for getting single named fields from LVM.
This was implemented wrongly. In the XDR protocol, UUIDs are fixed
buffers of length 32. We can just use memcpy to copy from the OCaml
string to the UUID, but we have to ensure the string length returned
by OCaml is correct (if not we just assert, it's an internal error).
(It didn't even compile before, so we know it was never used).
Ubuntu 22= uses /dev/disk/by-uuid/ followed by a filesystem UUID in
fstab entries. Resolve these to mountables.
A typical fstab entry looks like this:
# /boot was on /dev/vda2 during curtin installation
/dev/disk/by-uuid/b4e56462-5a64-4272-b76d-f5e58bd8f128 /boot ext4 defaults 0 1
The comment is generated by the installer and appears in the fstab.
This entry would be translated to /dev/sda2.
This acts just like FString except that we do reverse device name
translation on it. The only use is in the 'pvs-full' API where we
will use it (in a subsequent commit) to reverse translate the pv_name
field (a device name) before returning it from the daemon.
Compare this to the 'pvs' API which also returns a list of device
names, but using the generator's 'RStructList (RDevice,...)' return
type, where RDevice is similarly reverse translated.
Note in the library-side bindings, because the name has already been
translated in the daemon, we just treat it exactly the same as
FString. The vast majority of this patch is this mechanical change.

These are not required by libguestfs. They were used by virt-builder,
but that tool has now been moved to a separate project
(guestfs-tools).
Fixes: commit 733d2182b6
Useful for debugging problems caused by the host kernel. In
particular we were looking at a problem with passt creating a user
namespace but didn't know what exact kernel was being used.
Internal error type did not implement the necessary traits to be
treated as a proper Rust error. This would cause ergonomic issues
with manual error handling and with error handling crates like
anyhow. Implement the Display and Error trait for internal Error
type. This also fixes the build warnings.

Fixed break in Rust bindings where callback registering expected a
*const i8, but were provided with a *const c_char. Changed to be both
*const c_char in alignment with the libguestfs documentation.

These APIs allow you to capture output from guest commands that
generate more output than the protocol limit allows.

There were several, large *.o files left over after 'make clean':
$ ls ruby/ext/guestfs/
actions-0.c actions-2.c actions-4.c actions-6.c handle.c
actions-0.o actions-2.o actions-4.o actions-6.o handle.o
actions-1.c actions-3.c actions-5.c actions.h module.c
actions-1.o actions-3.o actions-5.o extconf.rb.in module.o
tests/Makefile.am assumes the test image is located in
tests/syslinux/, but we actually created it in tests/. Fix the
location, and also ensure the test will clean it up after running
successfully.
Replace strange $TEST_FUNCTIONS variable/expansion thing with
something more like what we use in nbdkit, a simple tests/functions.sh
script that gets sourced into each test script.
Update the common submodule to get:

mlcustomize, mltools: Replace $TEST_FUNCTIONS
TEST_FUNCTIONS is being removed from libguestfs and guestfs-tools (it
was removed from virt-v2v a while back). Make the same adjustment in
the common submodule.
(and some other commits which are not relevant to libguestfs)
