build: fix detection of netcf linked with libnl1
Commit 9298bfbcb introduced code to detect if netcf is linked with libnl1, and to prefer libnl1 over libnl3 when this is the case. This behaviour can be disabled by setting LIBNL_CFLAGS to any value, including the empty string. However, configure.ac sets LIBNL_CFLAGS to "" before attempting libnl detection, so the libnl1 detection code is always disabled. This caused issues on my f17 system where netcf is linked with libnl1 but libvirt got built with libnl3. This commit removes the setting of the LIBNL_* variables to "" as this does not appear to be needed. After this change, libnl1 is used when building libvirt on my f17 system. (cherry picked from commit f6c295156672fe15b32d2baddb68957bb7bddd8e)

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.
