5e9e444dec connection: Do non-VM polling on demand
The goal here is to reduce the amount of tick() polling that we do by default.
For things like pools, networks, and interfaces, the constant polling is
not very helpful and causes CPU churn and slowness for remote connections.

Switch to a more on demand style. Pages that want new information for
these objects now request a priority tick that only refreshes the info
we want.

This isn't perfect, but neither was the previous solution in the face of
things like XML updates behind our back. The real solution here is libvirt
event support across the board.

76887c9a32 engine: Switch tick threading model to use queues
And allow other parts of the API to request a priority tick that is
dispatched from the main tick thread.

492a039f7d VirtualConnection: proxy virtinst.support API
Simplifies the lives of callers, and will allow us to do caching later

57e86259d8 Make conn required for all virtinst objects
This was the way the API had been heading, this just formalizes it.

be2d9ddcb4 Add base conn object and bump minimum libvirt version to 0.6.0
This base connection object will be used to simplify the API in various
places, reduce libvirt API calls, and better share code between virtinst
and virt-manager. For now it just centralizes connection opening.

This also exposed various places where our handling for older libvirt
was busted, so raise our minimum host version to 0.6.0, the first
version that supports threaded client requests.

autopep8 is pretty cool :)

9515a8575d Disable pylint warnings about gi.repository
Since pylint still can't handle the dynamic nature of gobject
introspection.

a386186c74 Remove most map() and filter() usage
They aren't available on python3 so pylint complains, and list
comprehensions are usually better.

9d05583c26 Remove autotools, replace with distutils-extra
Despite being a known quantity, autotools is so overkill for our needs,
so let's drop it and replace it with a much simpler and easy to customize
system.
