build: fix 'make dist' on virgin checkout
'make dist' was depending on *protocol-structs files, which are stored in git but in turn depended on generated files. We still want to ship the protocol-structs files, but by renaming the tests to something not matching a file name, we separate 'make check' (which depends on the generated file) from 'make dist' (which only depends on the git files). After all, the tarball should never depend on a generated file not stored in git. I found one more case of a git file depending on a generated file, in a bogus virkeycode.c listing; but at least this one had no associated rules so it never broke 'make dist'. Reported by Wen Congyang. Latent bug has been present since commit 62dee6f, but only recently exposed by commit 7bff56a. * src/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/util/virkeycode.c): Drop useless dependency. (BUILT_SOURCES): ...and build virkeymaps.h sooner. (PROTOCOL_STRUCTS): Rather than depend on the struct file... (check-local): ...convert things into a phony target of... (check-protocol): ...a new check. ($(srcdir)/remote_protocol-struct): Rename to isolate the distributed file from the conditional test. (PDWTAGS): Deal with rename. Swap to compare 'expected actual'.
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.

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.
