There are now two places in libvirt which use polkit. Currently they use pkexec, which is set to be replaced by direct DBus API calls. Add a common API which they will both be able to use for this purpose. No tests are added at this time, since the impl will be gutted in favour of a DBus API call shortly. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
