[Libguestfs] [PATCH] virt-builder.pod: Update Fedora versions

Sat Mar 31 12:57:51 UTC 2018
This is just a mechanincal change, so that the public documentation[*]
refers to the latest release Fedora versions, instead of the EOLed
versions.
While at it, also update the `virt-cutomize` Makefile.am
[*] http://libguestfs.org/virt-builder.1.html

Maybe I missed more places. (Me wonders if upstream libguestfs uses a
more systematic approach to do this "purge" of EOLed distributions from
the source, where applicable.)
