Introduce caching whether /dev/kvm is usable as the QEMU user:QEMU
group. This reduces the overhead of the QEMU capabilities cache
lookup. Before this patch there were many fork() calls used for
checking whether /dev/kvm is accessible. Now we store the result
whether /dev/kvm is accessible or not and we only need to re-run the
virFileAccessibleAs check if the ctime of /dev/kvm has changed.

In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

Support for nested KVM is handled via a kernel module configuration
parameters values for kvm_intel, kvm_amd, kvm_hv (PPC), or kvm (s390).
While it's possible to fetch the kmod config values via virKModConfig,
unfortunately that is the static value and we need to get the
current/dynamic value from the kernel file system.
So this patch adds a new API virHostKVMSupportsNesting that will
search the 3 kernel modules to get the nesting value and check if
it is 'Y' (or 'y' just in case) to return a true/false whether
the KVM kernel supports nesting.
We need to do this in order to handle cases where adjustments to
the value are made after libvirtd is started to force a refetch of
the latest QEMU capabilities since the correct CPU settings need
to be made for a guest to add the "vmx=on" to/for the guest config.

When the guest is native, we are currently looking at
potential KVM binaries regardless of whether or not we have
already located a QEMU binary suitable to run the guest.
This made sense back when KVM support was not part of QEMU
proper, but these days the KVM binaries are in most cases
just trivial wrapper scripts around the native QEMU binary
so it doesn't make sense to poke at them unless they're
the only binaries on the system, such as when running on
RHEL.
This will allow us to simplify both virQEMUCapsInitGuest()
and virQEMUCapsInitGuestFromBinary().

When running an armv7l guest on an aarch64 hosts, the
qemu-system-aarch64 binary should be our first choice instead
of qemu-system-arm since the former can take advantage of KVM
acceleration.
Move the special case to virQEMUCapsFindBinaryForArch() so
that it's handled along with all other cases rather than on
its own later on.

virCapabilitiesAddGuestDomain() takes an optional binary
name: this is intended for cases where a certain domain
type can't use the default one registered for the guest
architecture, but has to use a special binary instead.
The current code, however, will pass 'binary' again when
'kvmbin' is not defined, which is unnecessary as 'binary'
has been registered as default earlier, and will result
in capabilities output such as
<emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator>
<domain type='qemu'/>
<domain type='kvm'>
<emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator>
</domain>
with the second <emulator> element providing no additional
information.
Change it so that, when 'kvmbin' is not defined, NULL is
passed and so the default emulator will be used instead.

This capability is documented as having one meaning (whether
KVM is enabled by default) but is actually assigned two other
meanings over its life: whether the query-kvm QMP command is
available at first, and later on whether KVM is usable / was
used during probing.
Since the query-kvm QMP command was available in 1.5.0, we
can avoid probing for it; additionally, we can simplify the
logic by setting the flag when it applies instead of initially
setting it and then clearing it when it doesn't.
The flag's description is also updated to reflect reality.
