Right now, the logic that takes care of deciding whether expensive
tests should be run or not is not working correctly: more
specifically, it's not possible to use something like
$ VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=1 ninja test
to override the default choice, because in meson.build we always
pass an explicit value that overrides whatever is present in the
environment.
We could implement logic to make this work properly, but that
would require some refactoring of our test infrastructure and is
arguably of little value given that running
$ meson build -Dexpensive_tests=enabled
is very fast, so let's just stop telling users about the variable
instead and call it a day.

There was one attempt a year ago done by me to drop HAL [1] but it was
never resolved. There was another time when Dan suggested to drop HAL
driver [2] but it was decided to keep it around in case device
assignment will be implemented for FreeBSD and the fact that
virt-manager uses node device driver [3].
I checked git history and code and it doesn't look like bhyve supports
device assignment so from that POV it should not block removing HAL.
The argument about virt-manager is not strong as well because libvirt
installed from FreeBSD packages doesn't have HAL support so it will not
affect these users as well [4].
The only users affected by this change would be the ones compiling
libvirt from GIT on FreeBSD.
I looked into alternatives and there is libudev-devd package on FreeBSD
but unfortunately it doesn't work as it doesn't list any devices when
used with libvirt. It provides libudev APIs using devd.
I also looked into devd directly and it provides some APIs but there are
no APIs for device monitoring and events so that would have to be
somehow done by libvirt.
Main motivation for dropping HAL support is to replace libdbus with GLib
dbus implementation and it cannot be done with HAL driver present in
libvirt because HAL APIs heavily depends on symbols provided by libdbus.

Add a configuration option for specifying location of the qemu modules
directory, defaulting to /usr/lib64/qemu. Then use this location to
check for changes in the directory, indicating that a qemu module has
changed and capabilities need to be reprobed.

Right now we're unconditionally adding RPATH information to the
installed binaries and libraries, but that's not always desired.
autotools seem to be smart enough to only include that information
when targeting a non-standard prefix, so most distro packages
don't actually contain it; moreover, both Debian and Fedora have
wiki pages encouraging packagers to avoid setting RPATH:
https://wiki.debian.org/RpathIssuehttps://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RPath_Packaging_Draft
Implement RPATH logic that Does The Right Thing™ in the most
common cases, while still offering users the ability to override
the default behavior if they have specific needs.
