Add a new type, "unix_fd", used to describe file descriptor sharing via
socket ancillary data (these messages are local only).
The marshaller/demarshaller can't serialize this in memory (consume_fd
implementation is empty), so it is the responsability of the marshaller
user to handle sending and receiving the handles, which are appended at
the end of the message with an extra stream byte (because some Unix
requires sending at least a byte with ancillary data).
Even if there is no fd to send (or if the fd is invalid etc), the
receiver side expects an extra byte anyway.

This patch changes the type of 'valid_attributes' and
'attributes_with_arguments'.
Both of them are list of different strings and are kept in sets.
This was the intention of the original code, but this patch
use a specific set([ strings ]) format, instead of { strings }.
This fixes the build for me on RHEL-6 (python-2.6.6).
Build error is:
File "/home/ulublin/git/spice/spice-common/python_modules/ptypes.py",
line 67
'end',
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Verify that the attribute is known. This could help for instance to
avoid some future typo mistakes.
We also now have a list of attributes that we can comment for
documentation purpose.

This is a new version of my previous patch that does not include six.py.
It's still kind of big, but at least it's all spice-common changes now.
There are also a few other fixes that Christophe brought to my attention.
Note that six now needs to be installed on the system (python-six on
Fedora and Debian, six on PyPI).
This *should* be enough to make spice_codegen.py work on both Python 2
and Python 3. The major changes are as follows:
* cStringIO.StringIO -> io.StringIO
* str vs. unicode updates (io.StringIO doesn't like str)
* integer division
* foo.has_key(bar) -> bar in foo
* import internal_thing -> from . import internal_thing
* removed from __future__ import with_statement
(might break Python 2.5?)
* changed some lambdas to list comprehensions (done by 2to3)
* cast some_dict.keys() to list where needed (e.g. for sorting)
* use normal type names with isinstance instead of types.WhateverType

The wireshark protocol dissector is a bit out-of-date. Several new channel types
and enums have been added. It would be nice if these values (and the
translation between the value and the name) could be automatically generated so
that updating the dissector was a slightly less manual process. This patch adds
a commandline switch which generates both the enums and value-name lists in the
format that wireshark expects.
Fixes the resulting enums.h from the invocation of:
./spice_codegen.py --generate-enums spice.proto spice-protocol/spice/enums.h
Right now any enum will contain None as the enum members, with this fix
it will contain the real enum members, i.e. SPICE_FOO.
We want to be able to add an @ifdef annotation to optional messages
For example, we want to compile in the smartcard messages only if
libcacard is available
With the new usbredir code we have the new concept of the abstract /
generic spicevmc channel type (which just tunnels data from a qemu chardev),
and we've the usbredir channel, which is the only current user of this.
This was reflected in the protocols enum in spice-protocol.h by a manual
edit done by me, my bad. This patch teaches spice.proto about the relation
between the abstract spicevmc channel and the usbredir channel and
modifies codegen to deal with this.

Commit 9d5ef9beec in spice-protocol
introduced a typedef manually in the generated enums.h header.
This patch adds them automatically to all enums during enums.h generation.
This means the member is not sent on the network at all.
Instead its initialized to the attribute argument when demarshalled.
This is useful for backwards compatibility support.
The "spice.proto" file describes in detail the networking prototcol
that spice uses and spice_codegen.py can parse this and generate
demarshallers for such network messages.
