[virt-tools-list] virt-what: config.guess needs updating to support ppc64le

virt-what is using an old version of config.guess, which means it can not properly detect ppc64le.

Using the config.guess from http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD, platform is successfully guessed.

See below output for an example. Note, config.guess.bak is the version that ships with virt-what-1.15.

Thanks,
Matthew Gyurgyik
