The first operation returns a token, which can be passed to the second
one to actually perform clone operation. This way the caller needs have
power over both source and destination VMs (or at least appropriate
volumes), so it's easier to enforce appropriate qrexec policy.
The pending tokens are stored on Qubes() instance (as QubesAdminAPI is
not persistent). It is design choice to keep them in RAM only - those
are one time use and this way restarting qubesd is a simple way to
invalidate all of them. Otherwise we'd need some additional calls like
CloneCancel or such.

Add convenient collection wrapper for easier getting selected volume.
Storage pool implementation may still provide only volume listing
function (pool.list_volumes), or, additionally, optimized
pool.get_volume.
This means it is both possible to iterate over volumes:
```python
for volume in pool.volumes:
...
```
And get a single volume:
```python
volume = pool.volumes[vid]
```

In the end firewall is implemented as .Get and .Set rules, with policy
statically set to 'drop'. This way allow atomic firewall updates.
Since we already have appropriate firewall format handling in
qubes.firewall module - reuse it from there, but adjust the code to be
prepared for potentially malicious input. And also mark such variables
with untrusted_ prefix.
There is also third method: .Reload - which cause firewall reload
without making any change.

There is a problem with having separate default action ("policy") and
rules because it isn't possible to set both of them atomically at the
same time.
To solve this problem, always have policy 'drop' (as a safe default),
but by default have a single rule with action 'accept'

Do this for all standard property types - even if other types do
additional validation, do not expose them to non-ASCII characters.

We've decided to make VM name immutable. This is especially important
for Admin API, where some parts (especially policy) are sticked to the
VM name.
Now, to rename the VM, one need to clone it under new name (thanks to
LVM, this is very quick action), then remove the old one.

meminfo (written by VM) is expected report KiB, but qmemman internally
use bytes. Convert units.
And also move obscure unit conversion in is_meminfo_suspicious to more
logical place in sanitize_and_parse_meminfo.
Check if exit code retrieved from dom0 is really the one expected.
Fix typo in test_065_qrexec_exit_code_vm (testvm1/testvm2), adjust for
reporing remote exit code and remove expectedFailure.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2861
Since tests expose qubesd socket, qvm-start-gui should handle starting
GUI daemons (so, GUI session inside VM). Add synchronization with it
using qubes.WaitForSession service.
When test expect to wait for remote process, use vm.run_for_stdio.
Additionally, when the call fail, (stdout, stderr) is not assigned - use
the one attached to exception object instead.
Since run_for_stdio raise an exception for non-zero exit code, it isn't
ignored anymore. So, check if qrexec-client-vm return expected value,
instead of keep ignoring it.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2861
Test suite creates some VMs and needs to pass the knowledge about them
to qrexec policy checker. This is done using Admin API, so we need to
substitute qubesd with our own API server.
