hvsupport: use a regex instead of XML::XPath
When generating the hvsupport.html.in file, we parse the -api.xml files generated by apibuild.py to know in which HTML file the API function is. Doing an XPath query for every single 'function' element in the file is inefficient. Since the XML file is generated by another of our build scripts (apibuild.py, using Python's standard 'output.write' XML library), just find the function name->file mapping by a regex upfront. Also add a note about this next to the line that generates it in apibuild.py and do not check if XML::XPath is installed in bootstrap since we no longer use it.
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.

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.
