[Libvir] PATCH: Disable automake portability warnings

The latest automake has a nasty habit of complaining about use of GNU Make features such as wildcards. We use these extensively in the tests/ directory since there are so many test datafiles, listing them explicitly is a waste of time. The attached patch passes the -Wno-portability flag to automake to make it keep quiet. NB, to do this required a bit of a re-working of the automake/autoconf initialization stuff. Our current configure script uses AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in the so called 'legacy style'. To quote the automake manual [quote] If your `configure.ac' has: AC_INIT([src/foo.c]) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([mumble], [1.5]) you can modernize it as follows: AC_INIT([mumble], [1.5]) AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([src/foo.c]) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE [/quote] This re-arrangement is valid on any non-jurassic era automake & only impacts developers running autogen.sh - not end users running the configure script itself. The one complication is that the version given to AC_INIT must be a literal, but we currently used an environment variable. So m4 black-magic gets around this problem. I also killed LIBVIRT_VERSION_EXTRA since it is not referenced anywhere in the source tree.
