maint: update to latest gnulib
Several portability changes, but the one we are most interested in is the improvement to bootstrap to detect perl modules. This patch doesn't actually change our bootstrap requirements (that will be a separate patch), but sets the stage for it. * .gnulib: Update to latest. * bootstrap: Regenerate from upstream.

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.
