There is no point in changing *public API* for just a change without any
better reason. It turned out most of those settings will be the same in
Qubes 4.0, so keep names the same.
This reverts commit 2d6ad3b60c.

core: start guid as normal user even when VM started by root
Another attempt to avoid permissions-related problems...

core: use runuser instead of sudo for switching root->user
There are problems with using sudo in early system startup
(systemd-logind not running yet, pam_systemd timeouts). Since we don't
need full session here, runuser is good enough (even better: faster).

core: start qubesdb as normal user, even when VM is started by root
On VM start, old qubesdb-daemon is terminated (if still running). In
practice it happen only at VM startart (shutdown and quickly start
again). But in that case, if the VM was started by root, such operation
would fail.
So when VM is started by root, make sure that qubesdb-daemon will be
running as normal user (the first user in group 'qubes' - there should
be only one).

Commit from core2:
commit 94d52a13e7
core: adjust guid parameters when running on KDE5
On KDE5 native decoration plugin is used and requires special properties
set (instead of `_QUBES_VMNAME` etc).
Special care needs to be taken when detecting environment, because
environment variables aren't good enough - this script may be running
with cleared environment (through sudo, or from systemd). So check
properties of X11 root window.

* core3-devices:
Fix core2migration and tests for new devices API
tests: more qubes.devices tests
qubes/ext/pci: implement pci-no-strict-reset/BDF feature
qubes/tools: allow calling qvm-device as qvm-devclass (like qvm-pci)
qubes: make pylint happy
qubes/tools: add qvm-device tool (and tests)
tests: load qubes.tests.tools.qvm_ls
tests: PCI devices tests
tests: add context manager to catch stdout
qubes/ext/pci: move PCI devices handling to an extension
qubes/devices: use more detailed exceptions than just KeyError
qubes/devices: allow non-persistent attach
qubes/storage: misc fixes for VM-exposed block devices handling
qubes: new devices API
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#2257
Instead of old per-VM flag 'pci_strictreset', now implement this as
per-device flag using features. To not fail on particular device
assignment set 'pci-no-strict-reset/DEVICE-BDF' to True. For
example 'pci-no-strict-reset/00:1b.0'.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2257
Implement required event handlers according to documentation in
qubes.devices.
A modification of qubes.devices.DeviceInfo is needed to allow dynamic,
read-only properties.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2257
Add 'backenddomain' element when source (not target) domain is not dom0.
Fix XML elemenet name. Actually set volume.domain when listing
VM-exposed devices.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256
Allow device plugin to list attached and available devices. Enforce
at API level every device being exposed by some domain.
This commit only changes devices API, but not update existing users
(pci) yet.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2257
This script should run as fast as possible, so avoid importing large
module. In fact the only used thing was argparse wrapper, so switch to
the standard one and drop aliases.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256
Some tests do not apply, as there is no savefile and attributes
propagation is much simpler. Dropped tests:
- test_000_firewall_propagation
- test_001_firewall_propagation
- test_000_prepare_dvm
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2253
- fix assigning 'template' property - do not do it if VM already have it
set
- cap default maxmem at 4000, as we clamp it to 10*memory anyway (and
default memory is 400)
- DispVM is no longer a special case for storage
- Add missing 'rw=True' for volatile volume
- Handle storage initialization (copy&paste from AppVM)
- Clone properties from DispVM template
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2253
It is useful on some cases to prevent talking to hypervisor.
Warning - it may have sense only when action do not access any runtime
VM status. For example running the domain will fail, but changing its
properties should work.
Do not access vm.libvirt_domain after it being already removed - this
will redefine it again in libvirt, just to undefine it in a moment.
On the other hand, few lines below there is fallback libvirt cleanup, in
case of proper one not working.
Since "qubes: fix event framework", handlers from extensions looks the
same as from the VM class itself, so it isn't possible to order them
correctly. Specification says:
For each class first are called bound handlers (specified in class
definition), then handlers from extensions. Aside from above,
remaining order is undefined.
So, restore this property, which is later correctly used to order
handlers.
When properly set, applications will have a chance to automatically
detect HiDPI and act accordingly. This is the case for Fedora 23
template and GNOME apps (maybe even all built on top of GTK).
But for privacy reasons, don't provide real values, only some
approximate one. Give enough information to distinguish DPI above 150,
200 and 300. This is some compromise between privacy and HiDPI support.
