LIBVIRT_ARG_WITH_ALT is more generic than LIBVIRT_ARG_WITH, which
is tailored at switching features on and off.
Rename the macros according to their intended purpose, and add
some documentation to help developers pick between the two.
Usage of AC_REQUIRE will mess with order how LIBVIRT_CHECK_* macros
are composed into configure.ac. This ensures that the output of
configure --help is properly ordered and grouped into sections.

Following patch will update LIBVIRT_CHECK_(LIB|LIB_ALT|PKG) macros in
a way that you will be able to call a another macro as a fallback if
the first one fails. To allow that, we need to move the
LIBVIRT_ARG_WITH out of those macro to not have two or more same lines
in output of "configure --help".

We support gluster volumes in domain XML, so we also ought to
support them as a storage pool. Besides, a future patch will
want to take advantage of libgfapi to handle the case of a
gluster device holding qcow2 rather than raw storage, and for
that to work, we need a storage backend that can read gluster
storage volume contents. This sets up the framework.
Note that the new pool is named 'gluster' to match a
<disk type='network'><source protocol='gluster'> image source
already supported in a <domain>; it does NOT match the
<pool type='netfs'><source><target type='glusterfs'>,
since that uses a FUSE mount to a local file name rather than
a network name.
This and subsequent patches have been tested against glusterfs
3.4.1 (available on Fedora 19); there are likely bugs in older
versions that may prevent decent use of gfapi, so this patch
enforces the minimum version tested. A future patch may lower
the minimum. On the other hand, I hit at least two bugs in
3.4.1 that will be fixed in 3.5/3.4.2, where it might be worth
raising the minimum: glfs_readdir is nicer to use than
glfs_readdir_r [1], and glfs_fini should only return failure on
an actual failure [2].
