This allows the user to give an explicit path to configure
./configure --with-vbox=/path/to/virtualbox
instead of having the VirtualBox driver probe a set of possible
paths at runtime. If no explicit path is specified then configure
probes the set of "known" paths.

v2:
- address Eric's comments
- wrap AC_HELP_STRING at 80 columns
- replace the if/else with a for loop, much nicer, indeed :)
- use AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED instead of AC_SUBST to define VBOX_XPCOMC_DIR
