Subject: [PATCH] launch-libvirt: add virtio-net via the standard <interface>
element
Starting with version 3.8.0, libvirt allows us to specify the network
address and network mask (as prefix) for SLIRP directly via the
<interface> element in the domain XML:
<https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#userspace-slirp-stack>. This means
we don't need the <qemu:commandline> hack for virtio-net on such versions.
Restrict the hack in construct_libvirt_xml_qemu_cmdline() to
libvirt<3.8.0, and generate the proper <interface> element in
construct_libvirt_xml_devices() on libvirt>=3.8.0.
