If the kernel module vhot_net is loaded, the performance of virtio
networking is better then without vhost_net.
So the module is loaded before libvirtd ist started to get the benefit
of vhost_net.

The directory /etc/libvirt is backed up on uninstallation and is
restored on installation.
Alle Files in /var are commented in the rootfile so they are not
removed on uninstallation.
Because of the fact that the directories are not shipped with the
package they were created at installation time.
The permissions of 3 directories are changed because the qemu user is
nobody and the qemu group is kvm, so the permissions must be nobody:kvm

The libvirt daemon was not started after installation because the
initscritp is named 'libvirtd' not like the package 'libvirt'.
The same problem appear in the uninstall.sh. The service was not
stopped.

Changes the libvirt user to nobody and the group to kvm this is a bit
safer as to use root for both.

It is possible to communicate per ssh via a socket with libvirt. It is
not a good idea to do this as root, so the remote user is now
libvirt-remote. Only this user or users in the group libvirt-remote can
communicate with the socket.
The user libvirt-remote is created without a password. The users have to
set a password for this user after installation.
