[libvirt] [PATCH v2 0/2] Fix vmware driver for VMware Fusion 10

These changes were required to get VMware Fusion working at all.
I tested with VMware Fusion 10.1.1 on macOS 10.12 Sierra.

I am not sure whether calling virCapabilitiesInitCaches() makes sense at
all on macOS. This function looks highly specific to Linux as it relies
on /sys/devices/system, so it should probably be wrapped with an
appropriate #ifdef. I do not feel proficient enough with the libvirt
internals to make this change, though.

v1 was here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-April/msg00087.html

diff to v1:
- Fix a possible segfault when vmrun is not found in PATH.
