[libvirt] [PATCH] configure: Prefer /usr/bin over /bin for numad

On Debian systems numad gets installed to /usr/bin. However some people
use usrmerge[0] which links /bin to /usr/bin. By changing the lookup
order we make sure the daemon is always found in /usr/bin (with or
without usrmerge installed).

This allows packages built on systems with usrmerge to run on systems
without usrmerge  which would otherwise fail since /bin/numad would be
hardcoded into libvirt.
