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.

Erik Skultety ab517a5ccb makefile: Move include/Makefile.am to include/libvirt/Makefile.am
The reason for this is to fix the automatic rebuild of libvirt-common.h.in.
All *.in files should be automatically rebuilt each time they're modified.
It works well for makefiles and pkgconfig files, since they do have a valid
dependency in the top-level Makefile. However, with libvirt-common.h.in
there is no dependency in the top-level Makefile and there's no need for it
either, so this rule

include/libvirt/libvirt-common.h: $(top_builddir)/config.status \
        $(top_srcdir)/include/libvirt/libvirt-common.h.in
    cd $(top_builddir) && $(SHELL) ./config.status $@

is never hit and should be moved to include/Makefile, but that's automake's
job. According to GNU automake docs:

"Files created by AC_CONFIG_FILES, be they
Automake Makefiles or not, are all removed by ‘make distclean’. Their inputs
are automatically distributed, unless they are the output of prior
AC_CONFIG_FILES commands. Finally, rebuild rules are generated in the Automake
Makefile existing in the subdirectory of the output file, if there is one, or
in the top-level Makefile otherwise."

Which means that if we want to have the rule for libvirt-common.h automatically
generated by automake, the include/Makefile.am needs to be moved into libvirt/
subdirectory and $SUBDIRS in the top-level Makefile need to be adjusted as
well. This patch moves Makefile.am from include/ to include/libvirt, adjusting
the prefixes accordingly as well as updates the top-level Makefile $SUBDIRS to
properly hint automake to generate all rules at proper places.

Best way to see the changes, use -M with 'git show'.

         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.
