[virt-tools-list] [virt-manager PATCH v3] domain: add support to rename domain with nvram vars file

Libvirt storage API doesn't support renaming storage volumes so
we need to copy the nvram file and remove the old one.

new in v3:
 - always assign some value into new_nvram and old_nvram
 - fixed overwriting exception error
 - call define_overview() inside rename_domain()
 - dropped overly protective check

new in v2:
 - properly implement the rename process
 - introduced new method has_nvram()
 - some comments
