This base connection object will be used to simplify the API in various
places, reduce libvirt API calls, and better share code between virtinst
and virt-manager. For now it just centralizes connection opening.
This also exposed various places where our handling for older libvirt
was busted, so raise our minimum host version to 0.6.0, the first
version that supports threaded client requests.
When Virtio SCSI disk was added to machine with default-model SCSI
controller, the new Virtio SCSI controller had the same index as the
default one (so the domain wouldn't start or with newer libvirt even
define).

When there are multiple usb devices with same vendor/product
in the host device list, the bus/addr is going to be used when
attaching one of usb devices.
Currently is_dup flag is only useful to VirtualHostDeviceUSB.
I put get_nodedevs_number() in connection.py, so the startup
hooks can use it.
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
system.
