Due to strangeness of KeyError (it overrrides __str__ method) in some
cases exceptions received superflous quotation marks when inheriting
from it.

* origin/pr/298:
tests/network: let xl devd bring the interfaces up
tests/network: improve error reporting
api/admin: implement *.property.GetAll methods
Avoid resetting clocksync service of just enabled clockvm
doc/tests: extend qubes-specific quirks in tests
tests: add include and exclude lists for extra tests loader
xl devd doesn't use startup notify, so when the service is started
(according to systemd) it may still be initializing interfaces. Add a
little sleep for that.
Allow getting all the VM properties with one call. This greatly improve
performance of an applications retrieving many/all of them (qvm-ls,
qubes manager etc)

One alternative would look like
import ctypes
sizeof_int = ctypes.sizeof(ctypes.c_int)
FICLONE = (1073741824 % 256**sizeof_int) | 37897 | (sizeof_int << 16)
but, even if the above really(?) is a 100% correct Python port of
$ echo FICLONE | cpp -include linux/fs.h | tail -n 1
it still seems more likely that the ctypes package is somehow buggy
somewhere than for Qubes storage to run on an exotic architecture with
non 32 bit ints (in the foreseeable future).
So just document the baked in assumption.
The default (= text) mode for a loop device which contains a VM image
looked weird, even though it didn't make a difference here because the
dev_io object was never actually read from.
When setting global clockvm property, 'clocksync' service is
automatically added to the new value and then removed from the old one.
But if the new value is the same as the old one, the service gets
removed from the just set new value.
Check for this case explicitly.

'extra' tests run is getting ridiculously long. Allow splitting it into
several jobs. Since this appears as just one class from the test loader
perspective, implement it as environment variables:
- QUBES_TEST_EXTRA_INCLUDE - load just selected tests
- QUBES_TEST_EXTRA_EXCLUDE - skip selected tests (to select "the rest"
tests)

Only first 4 disks can be emulated as IDE disks by QEMU. Specifically,
CDROM must be one of those first 4 disks, otherwise it will be
ignored. This is especially important if one wants to boot the VM from
that CDROM.
Since xvdd normally is a kernel-related volume (boot image, modules) it
makes perfect sense to re-use it for CDROM. It is either set for kernel
volume (in which case, VM should boot from it and not the CDROM), or
(possibly bootable) CDROM.
This needs to be done in two places:
- BlockExtension for dynamic attach
- libvirt xen.xml - for before-boot attach
In theory the latter would be enough, but it would be quite confusing
that device will get different options depending on when it's attached
(in addition to whether the kernel is set - introduced here).
This all also means, xvdd not always is a "system disk". Adjust listing
connected disks accordingly.
- allow TestQubesDB to be populated with initial data
- support list() method
- allow to register pre-created VM instance (useful for AdminVM, which
don't accept setting qid)
Pool.volumes property is implemented in a base class, individual drivers
should provide list_volumes() method as a backend for that property.
Fix this in a LinuxKernel pool.
Similar to admin.vm.volume.List. There are still other
admin.pool.volume.* methods missing, but lets start with just this one.
Those with both pool name and volume id arguments may need some more
thoughts.
Don't realy on a volume configuration only, it's easy to miss updating
it. Specifically, import_volume() function didn't updated the size based
on the source volume.
The size that the actual VM sees is based on the
file size, and so is the filesystem inside. Outdated size property can
lead to a data loss if the user perform an action based on a incorrect
assumption - like extending size, which actually will shrink the volume.

Handle this case specifically, as way too many users ignore the message
during installation and complain it doesn't work later.
Name the problem explicitly, instead of pointing at libvirt error log.
