[libvirt] [OSSTEST PATCH 2/2] libvirt: Do not attempt save/restore when migration not advertised

Currently, osstest wrongly thinks that ARM can do save/restore,
because `virsh help' does mention the save command (on all
architectures).

Additionally, check the virth capabilities xpath
   /capabilities/host/migration_features
to try to see whether this host supports migration.

I am not sure if this is the right path to check.  Perhaps
   /capabilities/host/migration_features/live
is more correct, but this may be wrong if Xen comes to support save/restore
on ARM, but not live migration (but perhaps libvirt cannot express this
distinction in which case perhaps it's right after all).
