When no URI is set we try to guess what daemon to connect to by looking
for any listening sockets. If there are no listening sockets, however,
we don't even know what daemon the user expected to connect to. The
error message in this case is not especially clear
This tweaks the error message to try to make the problem easier to

remote_driver: Move URI arg extraction into a separate function
There's a problem with glib: what we might consider functions are
in fact macros and to make things worse - they do declare local
variables. For instance here's the declaration of
g_clear_pointer() macro:
Now, as of v6.2.0-rc1~267 our VIR_FREE() macro is in fact a
redeclaration of g_clear_pointer(). Thus, calling VIR_FREE()
increases stack size!
Ideally, this wouldn't be a problem, because those variables
(_pp, _ptr) live in their own block. And clever compiler can just
reuse space created for one block.
But then there's clang where we are hitting this exact problem in
functions like doRemoteOpen() where either g_clear_pointer() is
called directly, or there are macros like EXTRACT_URI_ARG_STR()
which hide the call away.
That's why despite our previous efforts decreasing stack size we
still needed v9.8.0-rc1~208.
Well, moving URI argument extraction (those calls to
EXTRACT_URI_ARG_* macros) into a separate function helps us
decrease stack size from 2296 bytes to 1320.

improvements, but those will be addressed in future commits.

object initialization.
Since the code already has another variable for checking monitor returns
use that one properly so that the code makes sense.

backup: Add support for passing server socket file descriptor to backup NBD server
In deployments where libvirt is containerized together with the VM it
may be hard for the management application to access listening sockets
inside the container from the outside.
This patch implements "transport='fd'" for the NBD server definition for
backups which allows to use the existing "virDomainFDAssociate()" to
pass FD to a pre-opened server socket to qemu instead of trying to
create it by qemu.
Add schema, enable the parser, add formatter and implement the actual
passing for the qemu backup code.

qemu: monitor: Support FD passing of sockets to 'qemuMonitorJSONNBDServerStart'
Upcoming patches will extend the FD passing infrastructure to the backup
job so that users can pass an opened socket instead of qemu opening it
themself to bypass difficulities caused by containerizing libvirt.

Since the refactor to use proper enum type for the network transport the
'transport' variable is no longer filled. Remove it and fix the error
message which references it without using NULLSTR.

virDomainDiskDefValidateSourceChainOne: Fix validation of 'data-file' nesting
As the 'dataStore' is internally represented as a virStorageSource
object it has provisions for nesting which is not supported.
When I've reviewed and modified the commit adding data file parsing
support I've added code that was supposed to reject any 'backingStore'
and 'dataStore' structures nested in a source of a 'dataStore'.
Unfortunately the check was broken as one of the terms checked the
presence of parent's 'backingStore' instead of the nesting.

esxConnectListAllDomains: Don't propagate failure to lookup a single domain
In esxConnectListAllDomains if the lookup of the VM name and UUID fails
for a single VM (possible e.g. with broken storage) the whole API would
return failure even when there are working VMs.
Rework the lookup so that if a subset fails we ignore the failure on
those. We report an error only if lookup of all of the objects failed.
Failure is reported from the last one.
