Libvirt: make data injection partition customizable for user

Registered by raphael.glon

When using qemu-nbd or losetup for data injection, on the contrary to liguestfs, there is no possible smart discovery of the partition that should be used for data injection. In this case we could offer the possibility for the user to specify the data injection partition number through a glance image property
