virt-convert: Reimplement it

We totally break CLI compat here, but the previous tool wasn't sustainable.
Instead, repurpose the tool as strictly converting external formats
like ovf/vmx to native libvirt XML, and launch the guest.
So we drop vmx/virt-image output, and virt-image input, and a slew of
command line options. I don't think anyone was depending on this in a
scripted fashion, so in practice I don't think anyone will care.
Add much more comprehensive unit tests while we are at it.

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.

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 :)

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.

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.

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.

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
