Enables support for accessing files over HTTP:
qemu-system-x86_64 -drive media=cdrom,file=http://host/path.iso,readonly
Increases the closures size from 445 to 447 MiB.
The reason to patch QEMU is that with latest Nix, tests like "printing"
or "misc" fail because they expect the store paths to be owned by uid 0
and gid 0.
Starting with NixOS/nix@5e51ffb1c2, Nix
builds inside of a new user namespace. Unfortunately this also means
that bind-mounted store paths that are part of the derivation's inputs
are no longer owned by uid 0 and gid 0 but by uid 65534 and gid 65534.
This in turn causes things like sudo or cups to fail with errors about
insecure file permissions.
So in order to avoid that, let's make sure the VM always gets files
owned by uid 0 and gid 0 and does a no-op when doing a chmod on a store
path.
In addition, this adds a virtualisation.qemu.program option so that we
can make sure that we only use the patched version if we're *really*
running NixOS VM tests (that is, whenever we have imported
test-instrumentation.nix).
Tested against the "misc" and "printing" tests.

This reverts commit 0e0e3c0c08.
I've been seeing quite some QEMU segfaults on Hydra,
hopefully reverting the bump will fix the issue.

- Vte, add gtk3 support, enable introspection, update to 0.35.90
- Spice-gtk, add gtk3 support
- gtk-vnc, add gtk3 support
- Add libvirt-glib (thanks @bjornfor)
- Add usbredir
- qemu, enable usbredir

- virt-manager, update to 1.0.1
[Bjørn:
* Set namePrefix = "" to preserve package name "virt-manager"
(instead of "python2.7-virt-manager")
* Add dconf to GIO_EXTRA_MODULES to get persistent settings in
virt-manager. Without it:
GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications.
* Add ${gtk3}/share to XDG_DATA_DIRS to unbreak "Take Screenshot"
feature (fixes "Settings schema 'org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser' is not installed")
* gtk-vnc: don't pull "pkgs" attrset for optionalString, use stdenv.lib.optionalString instead.

We already enable VNC and SDL support by default and adding spice only
increases the closure size from 513 MB to 518 MB.
