[libvirt] NOTE: building libvirt requires srcdir != builddir now

A quick heads up to people who are pulling latest libvirt this morning.
Late on friday we pushed the series from Pavel which mandates that libvirt
does a VPATH build. ie you can't build directly in the source tree, you
must have a separate build directory.
IOW, instead of doing
./autogen.sh
make
You must change to
mkdir build
cd build
../autogen.sh
make
"build" can be any directory you like, and doesn't have to be a subdir
of the src checkout.
Most built files now live outside the srcdir - we only have autotools
related artifacts in srcdir now, and so the gitignore file is much
simpler.
Regards,
Daniel
