In order to make a client-only build successful on RHEL4, commit
3ed2e54 modified src/util/virnetdev.c so that the functional version
of virNetDevGetVLanID() was only compiled if GET_VLAN_VID_CMD was
defined. However, it is *never* defined, but is only an enum value, so
the proper version was no longer compiled even on platforms that
support it. This resulted in the vlan tag not being properly set for
guest traffic on VEPA mode guest macvtap interfaces that were bound to
a vlan interface (that's the only place that libvirt currently uses
virNetDevGetVLanID)
Since there is no way to compile conditionally based on the presence
of an enum value, this patch modifies configure.ac to check for said
enum value with AC_CHECK_DECLS(), which #defines HAVE_GET_VLAN_VID_CMD
if it's successful compiling a test program that uses
GET_VLAN_VID_CMD. We can then make the compilation of
virNetDevGetVLanID() conditional on that #define instead.

Difference from V1:
Use the amazingly compact AC_CHECK_DECLS() instead
of deprecated AC_TRY_COMPILE() + extra trappings.
