Currently automatic VM managed save is only performed in session
daemons, on desktop session close, or host OS shutdown request.
With this change it is possible to control shutdown behaviour for
all daemons. A recommended setup might be:
auto_shutdown_try_save = "persistent"
auto_shutdown_try_shutdown = "all"
auto_shutdown_poweroff = "all"
Each setting accepts 'none', 'persistent', 'transient', and 'all'
to control what types of guest it applies to.
For historical compatibility, for the system daemon, the settings
currently default to:
auto_shutdown_try_save = "none"
auto_shutdown_try_shutdown = "none"
auto_shutdown_poweroff = "none"
while for the session daemon they currently default to
auto_shutdown_try_save = "persistent"
auto_shutdown_try_shutdown = "none"
auto_shutdown_poweroff = "none"
The system daemon settings should NOT be enabled if the traditional
libvirt-guests.service is already enabled.

I wanted to note the we would leak memory here when reusing the same
string but virConfGetValueString frees the value before assigning new
data to it. But it doesn't touch the variable if the config option is
missing so the next check for NULL can be invalid if
auto_shutdown_try_save is set but auto_shutdown_try_shutdown is not set.

Doh, yes, we need g_clear_pointer(&autoShutdownScope, g_free) before
re-fetching the next value, or perhaps better just stop overloading
one variable for fetching multiple config parameter
