qemu-nbd: add support for authorization of TLS clients
Currently any client which can complete the TLS handshake is able to use the NBD server. The server admin can turn on the 'verify-peer' option for the x509 creds to require the client to provide a x509 certificate. This means the client will have to acquire a certificate from the CA before they are permitted to use the NBD server. This is still a fairly low bar to cross. This adds a '--tls-authz OBJECT-ID' option to the qemu-nbd command which takes the ID of a previously added 'QAuthZ' object instance. This will be used to validate the client's x509 distinguished name. Clients failing the authorization check will not be permitted to use the NBD server. For example to setup authorization that only allows connection from a client whose x509 certificate distinguished name is CN=laptop.example.com,O=Example Org,L=London,ST=London,C=GB escape the commas in the name and use: qemu-nbd --object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,dir=/home/berrange/qemutls,\ endpoint=server,verify-peer=yes \ --object 'authz-simple,id=auth0,identity=CN=laptop.example.com,,\ O=Example Org,,L=London,,ST=London,,C=GB' \ --tls-creds tls0 \ --tls-authz authz0 \ ....other qemu-nbd args... NB: a real shell command line would not have leading whitespace after the line continuation, it is just included here for clarity.
