[libvirt] [PATCHv3 1/4] util: Introduce monitor capability interface

[Wang Huaqiang]

This patch introduces the resource monitor and creates the interface
for getting host capability of resource monitor from the system resource
control file system.

The resource monitor takes the role of RDT monitoring group and could be
used to monitor the resource consumption information, such as the last
level cache occupancy and the utilization of memory bandwidth.
