[Spice-devel] [spice-gtk v2 2/2] cd-sharing: Implementation of CD sharing feature

This commit contains modified files related to CD sharing feature.
The feature adds ability to share one or more CD images
(or local CD-DVD devices) with the guest by emulating
USB CD devices connected to guest system.

Prerequisites:
   Guest system shall have USB2 or USB3 controller and one or more
   USB redirection channels. Each emulated CD device currently
   uses one USB redirection channel.
Usage from GUI:
   New USB device redirection widget includes 'Add CD' button that
   allows selection of ISO file which will be used for emulation
   of USB CD drive.
Usage from command line:
   Added command line option '--spice-share-cd=filename' which
   allows to create one or more emulated CD drives.
Sharing local CD drive:
   For sharing local CD drive use file name of respective device,
   it depends on the operating system of client machine.
   Example for Windows clients - d:
   Example for Linux clients - /dev/cdrom
Build backward compatibility:
   The feature can be disabled by build configuration:
   --enable-cdsharing=no disables CD sharing (USB redirection
     GUI uses new USB redirection widget)
   --enable-newusbwidget=no also disables CD sharing (USB
     redirection GUI uses old USB widget)
Notes for Windows build of 'VirtViewer':
   In order to show proper icons in new USB redirection widget
   the installation package of VirtViewer shall include
   following icons:
   "media-optical", "network-transmit-receive", "network-offline",
   "dialog-warning", "dialog-information",
   "preferences-system","system-lock-screen","media-eject",
   "edit-delete", "list-add"
Automatic redirection of emulated CD devices:
   Same as one for local USB drives:
   - shared CD devices created by command line redirected
     according to 'redirect-on-connect' filter
   - shared CD devices created during session redirected
     according to 'auto-redirect' filter
Disable redirection of emulated CD devices on server side:
   Same as for redirection of local USB drives:
   -device usb-redir,filter=<filter> option of qemu
