We define it internally for all our code except for the python bindings,
precisely because it is useful for our internal code.  A quick 'git grep
_LAST tools' will show that you can safely rely on the *_LAST sentinels
always being present from within virsh code (that is, we'd have to
change a lot of code if we ever decided not to expose it during internal
compilation).
