maint: update to latest gnulib
Time to update to new gnulib before a release. gcc 5.1 introduced a new -Wformat-signedness, and new gnulib now turns it on by default. However, it is still rather lame at the moment, because it warns for enums, even though there is no way to control the signeness of an enum which does not use any members that are negative or larger than INT_MAX, and even though such an enum would always print the same for both %d and %u: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66249 In file included from ../../src/util/virarch.c:26:0: ../../src/util/virarch.c: In function 'virArchFromHost': ../../src/util/virarch.c:180:15: error: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 9 has type 'unsigned int' [-Werror=format=] VIR_DEBUG("Mapped %s to %d (%s)", So this patch turns off the new warning as part of enabling all other new gcc 5.1 warnings that gnulib now enables. * .gnulib: Update to latest, in part for gcc 5.1 interaction. * m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4: Ignore -Wformat-signedness, for now.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
