[virt-tools-list] [virt-manager PATCH] virt-install: enable container to use "--boot init=INITPATH"

From: Chen Hanxiao <chenhanxiao at cn.fujitsu.com>

If we use "--boot init=INITPATH" style to set
container's init, virt-install will complain:

"ERROR    Install methods (--location URL,
--cdrom CD/ISO, --pxe, --import, --boot hd|cdrom|...)
cannot be specified for container guests"

This patch will fix this bug.
