da8061eefe build: properly skip tests
I got this failure on FreeBSD:

shunloadtest.c: In function 'main':
shunloadtest.c:150: error: 'EXIT_AM_SKIP' undeclared (first use in this function)

but inspection showed several other problems, all fixed here.

* tests/domainsnapshotxml2xmltest.c [!WITH_QEMU]: Ensure
EXIT_AM_SKIP is defined.
* tests/esxutilstest.c [!WITH_ESX]: Likewise.
* tests/openvzutilstest.c [!WITH_OPENVZ]: Likewise.
* tests/qemuargv2xmltest.c [!WITH_QEMU]: Likewise.

24d9792821 Avoid crash in shunloadtest
For unknown reasons, the shunloadtest will crash on Fedora 16
inside dlopen()

Changing from RTLD_NOW to RTLD_LAZY avoids this problem,
but quite possibly does not fix the root cause.

* shunloadtest.c: s/NOW/LAZY/

8e44e5593e Prevent crash from dlclose() of libvirt.so
When libvirt calls virInitialize it creates a thread local
for the virErrorPtr storage, and registers a callback to
cleanup memory when a thread exits. When libvirt is dlclose()d
or otherwise made non-resident, the callback function is
removed from memory, but the thread local may still exist
and if a thread later exists, it will invoke the callback
and SEGV. There may also be other thread locals with callbacks
pointing to libvirt code, so it is in general never safe to
unload libvirt.so from memory once initialized.

To allow dlclose() to succeed, but keep libvirt.so resident
in memory, link with '-z nodelete'. This issue was first
found with the libvirt CIM provider, but can potentially
hit many of the dynamic language bindings which all ultimately
involve dlopen() in some way, either on libvirt.so itself,
or on the glue code for the binding which in turns links
to libvirt

* configure.ac, src/Makefile.am: Ensure libvirt.so is linked
  with -z nodelete
* cfg.mk, .gitignore, tests/Makefile.am, tests/shunloadhelper.c,
  tests/shunloadtest.c: A test case to unload libvirt while
  a thread is still running.
