Currently, in the autogen.sh script we check whether .git is an existing
directory in which case bootstrap is run. However, if libvirt is a
submodule, then the .git is just a file (with reference to the topmost
.git directory). However, our submodule routines work well. So there's
no real reason why we should prohibit users to build libvirt from
submodule.
