Hyper-V version numbers are not compatible with the encoding in
virParseVersionString():
https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/blob/master/src/util/virutil.c#L246
For example, the Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V version is 10.0.14393: its
micro is over 14 times larger than the encoding allows.
This commit repacks the Hyper-V version number in order to preserve all
of the digits. The major and minor are concatenated (with minor zero-
padded to two digits) to form the repacked major value. This works
because Microsoft's major and minor versions numbers are unlikely to
exceed 99. The repacked minor value is derived from the digits in the
thousands, ten-thousands, and hundred-thousands places of Hyper-V's
micro. The repacked micro is derived from the digits in the ones, tens,
and hundreds places of Hyper-V's micro.

Right now, the logic that takes care of deciding whether expensive
tests should be run or not is not working correctly: more
specifically, it's not possible to use something like
$ VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=1 ninja test
to override the default choice, because in meson.build we always
pass an explicit value that overrides whatever is present in the
environment.
We could implement logic to make this work properly, but that
would require some refactoring of our test infrastructure and is
arguably of little value given that running
$ meson build -Dexpensive_tests=enabled
is very fast, so let's just stop telling users about the variable
instead and call it a day.

In [1], changes were made to remove the existing auto-alignment
for pSeries NVDIMM devices. That design promotes strange situations
where the NVDIMM size reported in the domain XML is different
from what QEMU is actually using. We removed the auto-alignment
and relied on standard size validation.
However, this goes against Libvirt design philosophy of not
tampering with existing guest behavior, as pointed out by Daniel
in [2]. Since we can't know for sure whether there are guests that
are relying on the auto-alignment feature to work, the changes
made in [1] are a direct violation of this rule.
This patch reverts [1] entirely, re-enabling auto-alignment for
pSeries NVDIMM as it was before. Changes will be made to ease
the limitations of this design without hurting existing
guests.

There was one attempt a year ago done by me to drop HAL [1] but it was
never resolved. There was another time when Dan suggested to drop HAL
driver [2] but it was decided to keep it around in case device
assignment will be implemented for FreeBSD and the fact that
virt-manager uses node device driver [3].
I checked git history and code and it doesn't look like bhyve supports
device assignment so from that POV it should not block removing HAL.
The argument about virt-manager is not strong as well because libvirt
installed from FreeBSD packages doesn't have HAL support so it will not
affect these users as well [4].
The only users affected by this change would be the ones compiling
libvirt from GIT on FreeBSD.
I looked into alternatives and there is libudev-devd package on FreeBSD
but unfortunately it doesn't work as it doesn't list any devices when
used with libvirt. It provides libudev APIs using devd.
I also looked into devd directly and it provides some APIs but there are
no APIs for device monitoring and events so that would have to be
somehow done by libvirt.
Main motivation for dropping HAL support is to replace libdbus with GLib
dbus implementation and it cannot be done with HAL driver present in
libvirt because HAL APIs heavily depends on symbols provided by libdbus.
