[libvirt] [snmp PATCH] configure: Fix MIB_DIR's prefix

So far we are taking whatever is `net-snmp-config
--default-mibdirs` returns and using that as MIB_DIR to install
our MIB. This has a drawback that it ignores whatever prefix user
specifies to configure script (which is used by `make distcheck`
too). The fix consists of querying for net-snmp-config --prefix
and replacing that in MIB_DIR var.

This is similar to what we do for wireshark in libvirt.
