When libvirtd is run from a build directory without being installed, it
should not depend on files from a libvirt package installed in the
system. Currently, APIs defined in src/ don't know whether libvirtd
is being run from the build dir or the installed dir. The following
additions provide the functionality to do so:
virSetUninstalledDir
virGetUninstalledDir
Example usage (utility = lxc|iohelper):
char *path_tmp = virGetUninstalledDir();
if (path_tmp)
/* do stuff with ("%s/../../src/libvirt_<utility>", path_tmp) */
else
/* do stuff with (LIBEXECDIR "/libvirt_<utility>") */
