Make qubes.NotifyTools reuse logic of qubes.FeaturesRequest, then move
actual request processing to 'features-request' event handler. At the
same time implement handling 'qrexec' and 'gui' features request -
allowing to set template features when wasn't already there.
Behavior change: template is no longer allowed to change feature value
(regardless of being True or False). This means the user will always be
able to override what template have set.
Drop DeviceInfo.data - device extension should provide a subclass with
proper individual fields.
Drop DeviceAssignment.frontend_domain - this information is redundant -
frontend domain is defined by where DeviceAssignment is attached.
Rename DeviceCollection.devclass to bus - devclass if confusing here,
because this term is also used for DeviceInfo subclass.
Implement this in two parts:
1. Permissions checks, getting a path from appropriate storage pool
2. Actual data import
The first part is done by qubesd in a standard way, but then, instead of
accepting all the data (which may be several GB), return a path to which
a shell script (in practice: `dd` command) will write the data.
Then the script call back to qubesd again to report success/failure and
qubesd response from that call is actually returned to the user.
This way we do not pass all the data through qubesd, but still can
control the process from there in a meaningful way. Note that the last
part (second call to qubesd) may perform all kind of verification (like
a signature check on the data, or so) and can also prevent VM from
starting (hooking also domain-pre-start event) from not verified image.

Accessing non-existing property is a common action (for example
hasattr() do try to access the property). So, introduce specific
exception, inheriting from AttributeError. It will behave very similar
to standard (non-Admin-API) property access.
This exception is reported to the Admin API user, so it will be possible
to distinguish between non-existing property and access denied. But it
isn't any significant information leak, as list of valid properties is
publicly available in the source code.
