[libvirt] [PATCH] spec: prefer canonical name of util-linux

I noticed that in two places, we require util-linux, and in a third,
we require util-linux-ng.  On Fedora (I tested F15 through rawhide),
util-linux-ng is obsoleted by util-linux; on RHEL 6, util-linux
is obsoleted by util-linux-ng.  That is, on either platform, either
name will get you the correct package installed (where the preferred
name on fedora is util-linux, and on RHEL 6 is util-linux-ng).  But
on RHEL 5, there is no util-linux-ng

* libvirt.spec.in (Requires): Use util-linux, not util-linux-ng.

I debated about pushing this under the trivial rule, but decided
not to.  Also, if you look at Fedora's git repository for libvirt,
you'll notice that Peter Robinson attempted this same patch for
F17 in commit f9de2f6, but with no explanation why.
