When restarting VM (starting it just after it was shut down), it may
happen that previous `qubesdb-daemon` instance is still running - if VM
doesn't properly terminate the connection, dom0 part will not terminate
immediately, but at next alive check (every 10s). Such `qubesdb-daemon`,
when terminating, will remove pid file and socket file. In case of new
daemon already running it would be those of the new daemon, making the
whole QubesDB of this VM inaccessible for dom0 (`qubesdb-daemon` is
running, but its socket is removed).
To prevent this race, ensure that previous instance is terminated before
starting the new one.
There is no need to manually removing socket file, because if some stale
socket exists, it will be replaced by the new one when new
`qubesdb-daemon` starts up.

QubesVM.start() first creates domain as paused, completes its setup
(including starting qubesdb-daemon and creating appropriate entries),
then resumes the domain. So wait for that resume to be sure that
`qubesdb-daemon` is already running and populated.

QubesWatch._register_watches is called from libvirt event callback,
asynchronously to qvm-start. This means that `qubesdb-daemon` may
not be running or populated yet.
If first QubesDB connection (or watch registration) fails, schedule next
try using timers in libvirt event API (as it is base of QubesWatch
mainloop), instead of some sleep loop. This way other events will be
processed in the meantime.

This makes easier to handle some corner cases. One of them is having
entry without `dir_path` defined. This may happen when migrating from R2
(using backup+restore or in-place) while some DisposableVM was running
(even if not included in the backup itself).

Reported by @doncohen, thanks @wyory for providing more details.
This is required to create VMs in process of building Live system, where
libvirt isn't running.
Additionally there is no udev in the build environment, so needs to
manually create /dev/loop*p* based on sysfs info.
This way even when qrexec agent would timeout on connection, guid will
be already running.
Also use new -K guid option to terminate stubdom guid when the real guid
is connected (unless in debug mode - then both guid will be running).
There were two bugs:
1. Firewall configuration wasn't copied during qvm-clone (it is in
separate file, so now it is included in vm.clone_disk_files).
2. Non-default firewall configuration wasn't stored in qubes.xml. This
means that initially DispVM got proper configuration (inherited from
calling VM), but if anything caused firewall reload (for example
starting another VM), the firewall rules was cleared to default state
(allow all).
