[virt-tools-list] [virt-manager PATCH] virtManager: clone: check which storage pools supports volume cloning

[Pavel Hrdina]

When cloning a guest in virt-manager the GUI shows a list of disks and
select default cloning policy for every disk.  For storage pools where
we know that cloning is not possible we should not select that option
as default one.
