[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH V2 1/2] Fix non persistent network handling (backend)

[Rodrigo Trujillo]

If some network is not persistent and the user tries to stop it, it is
going to be removed by libvirt and causes an error in Kimchi.
This patch changes the backend in order to get persistent information
and expose this information. It also changes API.md.
