Currently it is not possible to install a modular daemon subpackage without also installing the monolithic daemon https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2022-September/234554.html This series is an initial attempt at moving common daemons, utilities, and files from the daemon subpackage to a new daemon-core subpackage. The monolithic and modular daemons can then depend on the new subpackage. libvirt-guests is moved to a new libvirt-guests subpackage, which is recommended by the daemon subpackage to provide smoother upgrade. I've likely overlooked several items, but before continuing down this path too far I first wanted to gauge interest and see if this work is worth pursuing. If so, any comments on the RFC are appreciated! Note that patches 1-3 are things I noticed while working on the others and could be pushed independently.
