Another batch which has been hanging around for a while and never
submitted. Here the observation is most of the data passed to the JSON
libraries aren't modified. Marking the arguments to the functions as
constant is correct and makes the API rather similar to the one used
for "SXP". Once that is done some more merging is possible.
There seems to be a bit of a difference in how the interface for
libjson-c is formatted versus the libyajl variant. I've left it similar
to how it appeared to be done, but that looks a bit odd. If there is a
desire for linebreaks and indentation feel free.
This has been rebased for the new libjson-c library. Only difference was
needing to add some duplicate hunks for the new library.

Anything *_is_empty(), *_is_default(), or *_gen_json() is going to be
examining the pointed to thing, not modifying it. This potentially
results in higher-performance output. This also allows spreading
constants further, allowing more checking and security.

With libxl having gotten a lot more constant, now printf_info_sexp() and
printf_info_one_json() can add consts. May not be particularly
important, but it is best to mark things constant when they are known to
be so.

This should result in fewer branch instructions and a small performance
gain.

printf_info()/list_domains_details() had been serving fairly similar
purposes. Increase their consistency (add file-handle and output_format
arguments to list_domains_details(), reorder arguments) and then rename
to better reflect their functionality.
Both were simply outputting full domain information. As this is more of
a dump operation, "dump" is a better name.

create_domain()'s use of printf_info_sexp() could be merged down to a
single dump_by_config(), do so. This results in an extra JSON dictionary
in output, but I doubt that is an issue for dry-run or debugging output.
