I went through the commits since last release and added a few notes
which seem to be relevant for the news.

In case you notice there's something missing, please, either send me the
text to add it (and I'll re-sping this patch) and add the text before
merging this one.

Changes since v1:
- Actually run make-check in order to be sure the changes are fine.

Changes since v2:
- Fixed and reworded some parts according to John's and Erik's
  suggestions.
- Added, according to Erik's suggestion:
  - util: Introduce VIR_AUTOCLOSE macro to automatically close files' fds
  - virsh: Implement vsh-table in virsh and virsh-admin

Changes since v3:
- Dropped:
  - util: Introduce VIR_AUTOCLOSE macro to automatically close files' fds
    (by Peter's suggestion)
  - utils: Introduce resource monitor capability interface
    (by John's suggestion as this work is still a on-going work)
  - libxl: Add support to set shadow memory for any guest type
    (after a face-to-face discussion with Peter and Erik)
