In v9 I indicated that LIBXL_HAVE_LIBXL_VGA_INTERFACE_TYPE_VMWARE and
LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_HVM_VMWARE_HWVER could be covered by a single ack
(introducing vmware support generally).

In v11 this seems to have morphed into only
LIBXL_HAVE_LIBXL_VGA_INTERFACE_TYPE_VMWARE being provided, which is
clearly not an appropriate umbrella #define.

I'm also not sure if there is more stuff later in the series, if so then
unless it is all committed together an umbrella option may not work,
unless it is added right at the end, in which case I suppose having some
"unadvertised" functionality in the midst of a dev cycle would be ok.
Releasing like that would be a mistake though.

Ian.
