[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] Speed up hvsupport.pl

This reduces the script execution time from 14.7s to 60 ms.
Since this was by far the longest taking target from the docs/ directory
and make does not parallelize across Makefiles, the savings are similar
for a complete build from a fresh git checkout.

The second patch shaves off 8.2s, the third 6.4s and the last one shaves
off half of the remaining time.

Ján Tomko (4):
  hvsupport: Introduce parseSymsFile
  hvsupport: drop XML::XPath
  hvsupport: construct regex up front
  hvsupport: skip non-matching lines early
