// Package libvirt-go-xml defines structs for parsing libvirt XML schemas
//
// The libvirt API uses XML schemas/documents to describe the configuration
// of many of its managed objects. Thus when using the libvirt-go package,
// it is often neccessary to either parse or format XML documents. This
// package defines a set of Go structs which have been annotated for use
// with the encoding/xml API to manage libvirt XML documents.
//
// Example creating a domain XML document from configuration:
//
//  import (
//   "github.com/libvirt/libvirt-go-xml"
//  )
//
//  domcfg := &libvirtxml.Domain{Type: "kvm", Name: "demo",
//                               UUID: "8f99e332-06c4-463a-9099-330fb244e1b3",
//                               ....}
//  xmldoc, err := domcfg.Marshal()
//
// Example parsing a domainXML document, in combination with libvirt-go
//
//  import (
//    "github.com/libvirt/libvirt-go"
//    "github.com/libvirt/libvirt-go-xml"
//    "fmt"
//  )
//
//  conn, err := libvirt.NewConnect("qemu:///system")
//  dom := conn.LookupDomainByName("demo")
//  xmldoc, err := dom.GetXMLDesc(0)
//
//  domcfg := &libvirtxml.Domain{}
//  err := domcfg.Unmarshal(xmldoc)
//
//  fmt.Printf("Virt type %s", domcfg.Type)
//
