If the VM is powered off shortly after startup, it may happen that
qubes.SetMonitorLayout would start it again. Avoid this by using
autostart=False argument to run_service() function.
Note that there is a vm.is_running() check at the beginning of the
function already, but if it happens while the VM is cleaned up, it may
still report that it's running, but at the time of run_service() call it
is not.
This allows to run a service but do not cause a qube to be started it
isn't already running. This is especially useful for background /
internal calls designed to service a running target VM - if VM is not
running, those do not make sense to be called in the first place.
Specifically, this will allow qvm-start-gui to avoid re-starting a
domain while calling qubes.NotifyMonitorLayout, when a VM is shutdown
shortly after its startup.
Previous commit introduced protection against uncommon (potentially
malicious) compression filters. This breaks restoring backups made with
a custom compression filter. Add an option to override this check, by
naming compression filter to use explicitly.

Add support for importing volume data with qvm-volume tool.
This could be also used to clear volume by issuing:
qvm-volume import --no-resize some-vm:private /dev/null

Reinstalling template is a recommended way to get it back to a clean
state after potential compromise. In that case it is essential to
discard any persistent storage of old template, as it could be used by
the attacker to re-compromise it after reinstall.
Do this similar as root volume is overridden - via volume import
function.

Fix syntax workaround for python3.7 + python2.7. This code can't use
'yield from' to be still importable on python2.7, but asyncio.sleep() is
no longer iterable on python3.7. Workaround it by manually calling
coroutine.send(None) in a loop - ugly as hell, but works. I can't wait
until we could drop python2 support...
Addresses review comments, specifically:
* updates qvm-clone tests to handle ignore_errors option
* adds manpage reference to new --ignore-errors option
* trims line length in qvm-clone changes
All tests should now be passing, including the new qvm-clone
functionality.
Specify compression explicitly in the backup profile, not only when
requested with --compress or --compress-filter.
This will allow to disable compression with --no-compress option, as the
default if no compression is specified in the profile is to use gzip.

When cloning VM, create it in the same pool as the source one.
Previously it always used default pool, which means for example renaming
a VM in non-default pool moved it back to the default one.

qubes.VMShell service, used by qvm-run, expects the command on the first
input line. Previously, when --localcmd was used, the command wasn't
written anywhere and the local command was connected directly to
qubes.VMShell service. And the first line of its output was interpreted
as a command.
Fix this by starting the local command separately, after sending the
command to qubes.VMShell service.
While at it, unify handling shell command and service calls in the process.
vm.run_service(..., localcmd= ) isn't that useful in general case,
because for qubes.VMShell the caller first need to send the command
before starting local process. Since the qvm-run tool needs to implement
manual starting localcmd anyway, don't use localcmd= run_service's
argument at all to unify calling methods.
There is slight behavior change: previously localcmd was started only
after establishing service connection (for example only if qrexec policy
allows), now it is started in all the cases.

The qubesd daemon have no information about clone source - from that
side it looks like a new VM. This means application menu is created as
for a new VM.
To fix this re-initialize menu with --source option as part of the clone
operation. It will copy both list of available applications (if
applicable) and selected applications.
This fixes both qvm-clone case and rename.

By definition StandaloneVM is not linked to the template. Creating one
from a template is a clone operation. It's already possible using
qvm-clone tool, but it's logical to do that using qvm-create tool too.
This was the case in R3.2 too.
While adding this special case, skip cloning private volume, to preserve
behaviour of TemplateBaseVMs which do not inherit private volume either.

Port 5a39e777089d8bde6d0a620830a898c1cf3dd924 ("events: add support for
wildcard event handlers") from qubes-core-admin:
Support registering handlers for more flexible wildcard events: not only
'*', but also 'something*'. This allows to register handlers for
'property-set:*' and such.
If file to be imported is larger than the default root volume, resize
the volume first. It might be also a good idea to shrink it when needed,
but currently the backend refuse it.
