The main process sometimes sets fd 1 to O_NONBLOCK, and since in the
terminal case fd 0 and 1 are the same fd, this also results in fd 0
being non-blocking, causing qvm-run to crash with EAGAIN.
So just make the code work for both blocking and non-blocking stdin.
1. Output of `losetup` command contains `\n` - strip it.
2. Provide read-only option - if device info hasn't propagated to qubesd
yet, it will not be set automatically.

Very few calls at client side really needs VM class name. So, even in
non-blind mode use just QubesVM class, to avoid strange cases depending
on blind mode being enabled or not. Then, have VM class name in 'klass'
property. If known at object creation time, cache it, otherwise query
qubesd at first access.
Booting a VM from cdrom require attaching the device before VM startup,
which is possible only in persistent mode. But for qvm-start --cdrom
adding a cdrom only temporarily, use new update_persistence() function
to convert the assignment to temporary one.

This may be confiusing, for example one may think that
`qvm-prefs --unset vmname netvm` will make vmname network-disconnected.
This type of mistakes may have severe security consequence, so better
drop those option names.

Add option to uniformly start new DispVM from either VM or Dom0. This
use DispVMWrapper, which translate it to either qrexec call to $dispvm,
or (in dom0) to appropriate Admin API call to create fresh DispVM
first.
This require abandoning registering --all and --exclude by
QubesArgumentParser, because we need to add --dispvm mutually exclusive
with those two. But actually handling those two options is still done by
QubesArgumentParser.
This also updates man page and tests.

When data block is smaller than 4096 (and no EOF is reached), python's
io.read() will call read(2) again to get more data. This may deadlock if
the other end of connection will write anything only after receiveing
data (which is the case for qubes.Filecopy).
Disable this buffering by using syscall wrappers directly. To not affect
performance that much, increase buffer size to 64k.

* devel-6:
qvm-ls: fix total VM size reporting
doc: update manpage of qvm-service
tools: qvm-service tool
tests: too much copy&paste
features: serialize True as '1'
tools/qvm-start-gui: add --force-stubdomain options
tools/qvm-shutdown: fix help message
tools/qvm-shutdown: drop --force option, it isn't supported anymore
New qvm-backup tool can either use pre-existing backup profile
(--profile), or - when running in dom0 - can create new one based on
used options (--save-profile).
This commit add a tool itself, update its man page, and add tests for
it.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#2931
* devel-2-qvm-run-1:
Make pylint happy
tools/qvm-run: fix handling EOF
tests: mark qvm-run tests with "expected failure"
tools/qvm-run: fix handling copying stdin to the process
Launch stdin copy loop in a separate process (multiprocessing.Process)
and terminate it when target process is terminated.
Another idea here was threads, but there is no API to kill a thread
waiting on read().
VMs can have runtime dependencies - for example it isn't possible to
shutdown netvm used by some other running VM(s). Since client-side tools
may not have full knowledge about rules enforcing those dependencies
(for example may not have access to 'netvm' property), implement
best-effort approach:
1. Try to shutdown all requested VMs
2. For those where shutdown request succeed, wait for actual shutdown
3. For others - go back to step 1
And loop until all VMs are shutdown, or all shutdown requests fails.
