I noticed some VIR_WARN* uses with unmarked (for translation)

128
Here's a sample:
src/phyp/phyp_driver.c: VIR_WARN0("Unable to stat local file.");
src/phyp/phyp_driver.c: VIR_WARN0("Unable to open local file.");
src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: VIR_WARN0("Failed to get host CPU");
Historically we have avoided marking our debugging messages
for translation. These messages generally aren't useful for
end users, their core purpose is to assist package maintainers
& developers receiving bug reports in identifying the problem.
Getting bug reports with these messages in non-english languages
makes life harder.
