Eric Blake 350583c859 build: hoist qemu dependence on yajl to configure
Commit 6e769eba made it a runtime error if libvirt was compiled
without yajl support but targets a new enough qemu.  But enough
users are hitting this on self-compiled libvirt that it is worth
erroring out at compilation time, rather than an obscure failure
when trying to use the built executable.

* configure.ac: If qemu is requested and -version works, require
yajl when qemu version is new enough.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsComputeCmdFlags): Add
comment.

         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.
