Cole Robinson eca87838fb virt-install: Add --features option
And hide docs about old --noacpi/--noacpi options. I don't think
anyone really uses them anyways, but if anyone complains we should
just implement --features for the other CLI commands.

Martin Kletzander 2dcba19f8c Fix addresses in manual
Mention multifunction usage in manual, fix double use of PCI address
and also fix the format of PCI the address described (we parse and use
dot everywhere, but there was a colon on one place in man).

Daniel Gollub 1730a8e5ff virtinst: add nwfilter support
This allows to make use of libvirt network filtering support with virt-install.
With the additional option "filterref" in the --network parameter one can
configure any defined nwfilter per network interface, i.e.:
virt-install ... --network network=mynet,model=virtio,filterref=clean-traffic

(crobinso: add an xmlparse test case)

Cole Robinson e02fa9b4fe virt-install: Add --boot dtb=DTB support

Guannan Ren 5fd874e231 change virt-manager option spice-disable-usbredir to spice-disable-auto-usbredir
This is option is supposed to turn off Auto USB redirection feature
rather than USB redirection support. So adding 'auto' make it clearer.
And add its docs to manpage.

Cole Robinson 45d2db887d virt-*: Unify handling of --os-variant

Martin Kletzander b8a209ef9c virt-install: Make default graphics configurable
The '--default-graphics' option of 'setup.py configure' only affects
virt-manager, but not virt-install.  This should be unified, so this
patch checks whether default_graphics taken from the cli is supported
and uses that option.

Martin Kletzander 54c6bb6bd1 Add controller example into virt-install manual page
There was an example for USB controller, but to show all the
sub-options, there was the master= option used without extra
information about the fact that it is used for companion controllers
only.  So this patch adds second example in front of the previous one
and re-words the description a little bit.

Cole Robinson a58442ec3e Remove AUTHORS
Kind of a maintenance pain, and it's just poorly duplicating info
from the git logs. We could autogenerate this but I don't really
have the interest in figuring it out. Patches welcome :)

Cole Robinson 7ae458f1ba virt-install: Error if -c <uri> specified
-c maps to --cdrom for virt-install, but for other libvirt tools like
virsh it maps to --connect.

Handle -c and --cdrom a little differently: if -c contains '://',
error out with an explanation. User can work around it by using
--cdrom. This could in theory break some users, but the change they
make will be backwards compatible.

Cole Robinson c60ad16b3b Convert all DBus usage to Gio GDBUS
And drop a whole bunch of legacy dbus fallback stuff. Now that we
are bumping the host dependencies to very recent gtk, none of the
back compat should matter.

Martin Kletzander 590c8dbebf Don't support sparse logical volumes
Sparse logical volumes are supported by libvirt, but only in case the
user takes care of the reallocation, which is not what virt-install
and virt-manager users want.  This patch defaults the logical volumes
to non-sparse ones and makes sure allocation is always equal to
capacity for such volumes.

Cole Robinson 9d05583c26 Remove autotools, replace with distutils-extra
Despite being a known quantity, autotools is so overkill for our needs,
so let's drop it and replace it with a much simpler and easy to customize
