Since kvm tools isn't going to support options to 'kvm' itself, I
believe that even though it looks somewhat hacky, it's the simplest and
most correct solution.

If we were going to add more parameters besides '--version' then yes,
let's write a better interface.

Perf for example allow '--version' by doing a strcmp() before command
parsing, which is equally not that nice :)
