We might not care in RHEL, but we certainly *do* care upstream.

More specifically, I built both QEMU and libvirt on Fedora 29 after
running 'dnf builddep' for the respective packages, so there should
be nothing enabled that would not be enabled in the Fedora packages:
in fact, I compared the replies and they're identical.

Additionally, if you check out the existing replies you'll see that
we had Xen support compiled into QEMU when we generated those for
versions 2.8, 2.9 and 2.10. And no, not all of those were provided
by me... You might actually be surprised when looking at the git
history for those files ;)
