Do not write directly to main volume, instead create temporary volume
and only commit it to the main one when operation is finished. This
solve multiple problems:
- import operation can be aborted, without data loss
- importing new data over existing volume will not leave traces of
previous content - especially when importing smaller volume to bigger
one
- import operation can be reverted - it create separate revision,
similar to start/stop
- easier to prevent qube from starting during import operation
- template still can be used when importing new version

First rename volume to backup revision, regardless of revisions_to_keep,
then rename -snap to current volume. And only then remove backup
revision (if exceed revisions_to_keep). This way even if commit
operation is interrupted, there is still a volume with the data.
This requires also adjusting few functions to actually fallback to most
recent backup revision if the current volume isn't found - create
_vid_current property for this purpose.
Also, use -snap volume for clone operation and commit it normally later.
This makes it safer to interrupt or even revert.

qvm-clock-sync fails with a python subprocess error on line 43 when the `date ... -s ...` fails due to insufficient privileges to set the date. This commit checks to see if the program has effective UID root before attempting to set the date.
is_outdated() may be not supported by given volume pool driver. In that
case skip is_outdated information, instead of crashing the call.

* qubesos/pr/210:
spec.in: remove useless condition on Fedora 17 which induces problem with Travis
spec.in: add changelog placeholder
Define backend_vmm macro
doc: handle release definition when not being in a git repository
Remove _builddir
Create .spec.in and Source0
Before waiting for remaining tasks on event loop (including libvirt
events), make sure all destroyed objects are really destroyed. This is
especially important for libvirt connections, which gets cleaned up only
when appropriate destructor (__del__) register a cleanup callback and it
gets called by the loop.
Use VM's actual IP address as a gateway for other VMs, instead of
hardcoded link-local address. This is important for sys-net generated
ICMP diagnostics packets - those must _not_ have link-local source
address, otherwise wouldn't be properly forwarded back to the right VM.
If domain die when trying to kill it, qubesd may loose a race and try to
kill it anyway. Handle libvirt exception in that case and conver it to
QubesVMNotStartedError - as it would be if qubesd would win the race.

Scripts do parse its output sometimes (especially `lvs`), so make sure
we always gets the same format, regardless of the environment. Including
decimal separator.

Don't rely on timestamps to sort revisions - the clock can go backwards
due to time sync. Instead, use a monotonically increasing natural number
as the revision ID.
Old revision example: private.img@2018-01-02-03T04:05:06Z (ignored now)
New revision example: private.img.123@2018-01-02-03T04:05:06Z
* devel-storage-fixes:
storage/file: use proper exception instead of assert
storage/file: import data into temporary volume
storage/lvm: check for LVM LV existence and type when creating ThinPool
storage/lvm: fix size reporting just after creating LV
Similar to LVM changes, this fixes/improves multiple things:
- no old data visible in the volume
- failed import do not leave broken volume
- parially imported data not visible to running VM

* storage-properties:
storage: use None for size/usage properties if unknown
tests: call search_pool_containing_dir with various dirs and pools
storage: make DirectoryThinPool helper less verbose, add sudo
api/admin: add 'included_in' to admin.pool.Info call
storage: add Pool.included_in() method for checking nested pools
storage: move and generalize RootThinPool helper class
storage/kernels: refuse changes to 'rw' and 'revisions_to_keep'
api/admin: implement admin.vm.volume.Set.rw method
api/admin: include 'revisions_to_keep' and 'is_outdated' in volume info
It may happen that one pool is inside a volume of other pool. This is
the case for example for varlibqubes pool (file driver,
dir_path=/var/lib/qubes) and default lvm pool (lvm_thin driver). The
latter include whole root filesystem, so /var/lib/qubes too.
This is relevant for proper disk space calculation - to not count some
space twice.

This pool driver support only rw=False and revisions_to_keep=0 volumes.
Since there is API for changing those properties dynamically, block it
at pool driver level, instead of silently ignoring them.
