[PATCH] Make 'xm save' sanity check the path

[Dan Smith <danms@us.ibm.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 209 bytes --]

This patch adds a quick check in "xm save" to make sure the path given
exists, and is writable.

This will fix the issue detected by xm-test 03_save_bogusfile_neg.
