[libvirt] avoid "make check" hang on daemon-conf

Hi Dan,

With your 28-part patch, I was getting a daemon-conf failure in "make check".
This fixes it:

Unless you tell me otherwise, I will apply most of this right away,
(and let you remove the space-before-max_clients in your patch)
since no other part of this change conflicts with your series.

Subject: [PATCH] tests: daemon-conf: accommodate new numeric-valued config params:

This test would hang when failing to perturb the new numeric
(and non-boolean) valued parameters, max_clients, max_workers,
min_workers.
* tests/daemon-conf: Require that all commented out settings
in libvirtd.conf have the same form.  Before, two parameters
were not being tested, since a space had snuck between the
leading "#" and the "param = value" parts.
Apply each RHS-value-perturbing transformation
separately, not in series.
Let VERBOSE=yes turn on debugging.
Be more verbose by default, since this is a relatively
long-running test.
* qemud/libvirtd.conf: Normalize the spacing around each setting
that is to be perturbed by tests/daemon-conf.
