[libvirt] [PATCH] build: speed up non-maintainer builds

* configure.ac (gl_ASSERT_NO_GNULIB_POSIXCHECK): Use to reduce
time spent in configure.
---

This skips out on the bulk of the 'declared without a macro' checks
during configure time (they are only useful if you are going to
run with CFLAGS=-DGNULIB_POSIXCHECK=1, but that's a maintainer action);
it also results in a smaller config.h (no HAVE_RAW_DECL substitutions).

Worth including in 0.8.8?
