[libvirt] [PATCH] HACKING: add a section on preprocessor conventions

* HACKING: Document recently-discussed style issues. Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake(a)redhat.com&gt; --- Turn recent discussions: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-March/msg00058.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-March/msg00120.html into policy, so I don't keep debating style points ;) Can wait till after 0.7.7 (particularly since the vararg macro series is also waiting).
