75597f022a qemu: Warn verbosely if using old loader:nvram pairs
There are two ways for specifying loader:nvram pairs:

  1) --with-loader-nvram configure option
  2) nvram variable in qemu.conf

Since we have FW descriptors, using this old style is
discouraged, but not as strong as one would expect. Produce more
warnings:

  1) produce a warning if somebody tries the configure option
  2) produce a warning if somebody sets nvram variable and at
     least on FW descriptor was found

The reason for producing warning in case 1) is that package
maintainers, who set the configure option in the first place
should start moving towards FW descriptors and abandon the
configure option. After all, the warning is printed into config
output only in this case.

fe98219596 configure: Prefer LIBVIRT_RESULT over AC_MSG_NOTICE
One of the advantages is that LIBVIRT_RESULT aligns the resulting
message for us.

e64f2fab92 m4/virt-arg: Rename LIBVIRT_ARG_WITH* macros
LIBVIRT_ARG_WITH_ALT is more generic than LIBVIRT_ARG_WITH, which
is tailored at switching features on and off.

Rename the macros according to their intended purpose, and add
some documentation to help developers pick between the two.

83390dac2f m4/virt-loader-nvram: use quotation for list of loader:nvram pairs
The bug was introduced by commit 08c2d1480b.  The string must be quoted
because it is used as function argument.
