kvm72: configure script mangles --audio-drv-list and --audio-card-list and blocks them from --help

[TJ]

The ./configure script, whilst trying to be clever in passing options to
qemu/configure, mangles the --audio-*-list options. It also prevents the
audio-*-list options showing up as a result of --help.

Here's the output with additional logging echos to show what it and
qemu/configure actually see:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-vde \
 --audio-card-list="ac97 adlib cs4231a gus" \
 --audio-drv-list="alsa esd pa"

Checking options:
--prefix = /usr
--enable-vde = 
--audio-card-list = ac97 adlib cs4231a gus
--audio-drv-list = alsa esd pa

qemu/configure command line:
 ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu --disable-kqemu --disable-gcc-check \
 --extra-cflags=-I /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/qemu/../libkvm  -DCONFIG_X86 \
 --extra-ldflags=-L /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/qemu/../libkvm  \
 --kernel-path=/home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/kernel \
 --prefix=/usr --enable-vde --audio-card-list --audio-drv-list

Checking options:
--target-list=x86_64-softmmu = x86_64-softmmu
--disable-kqemu = 
--disable-gcc-check = 
--extra-cflags=-I /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/qemu/../libkvm  -DCONFIG_X86 = -I /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/qemu/../libkvm  -DCONFIG_X86
--extra-ldflags=-L /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/qemu/../libkvm  = -L /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/qemu/../libkvm 
--kernel-path=/home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/kernel = /home/all/SourceCode/kvm-72/kernel
--prefix=/usr = /usr
--enable-vde = 
--audio-card-list = 
ERROR: unknown option --audio-card-list
Usage: ./configure [options]

this sounds like the problem that was introduced with the qemu merge for
kvm-71; the following patch series addresses it :

  http://www.mail-archive.com/kvm@vger.kernel.org/msg01763.html

they should also apply to kvm-72 cleanly, but will try to rebase them and
resend them later so they have a better chance of getting merged.
