[FFe] Cherry-pick UML enhancements from upstream

[Soren Hansen]

I've been working on a number of enhancements for user-mode-linux that are now in upstream libvirt. They are extremely helpful in testing Openstack on virtual hardware, so I'd like to add them to Ubuntu's libvirt package. They've all been reviewed and ACK'ed upstream.

The patches in question are:

I won't object either. Please go ahead.
