[libvirt] [PATCH] Allow a user-settable number of VNC autoports.

Currently we have a hard-coded maximum of 100 VNC autoports
that the qemu driver can use.  This may not be enough for
running large numbers of guests on larger machines.
However, we don't necessarily necessarily want to make
it an open-ended number; that could lead to Denial of
Service.  Allow a user-settable option to control the
number of autoports we will assign.  The default is still
100, but now users can increase that if they wish.
