[meta-virtualization] [meta-virt][PATCH 1/1] libvirt: use relative path to local .m4 files

If our project is in a directory with a pathname of longer than
about 125 characters, configuration will fail with an "Argument
list too long" error.  This patch uses the technique that was applied
to the coreutils recipe.
