[PATCH] libvirt: update list of licenses

[PATCH] libvirt: update list of licenses

[Mark Asselstine]

Apparently if a license is listed for a package it must be included in
the overall LICENSE variable otherwise you will get WARNINGS such as:

    WARNING: LICENSE_libvirt-ptest includes licenses (LGPLv2.1 GPLv2+)
    that are not listed in LICENSE

We ensure that the license string is consistent between the LICENSE
variable and the subpackage license string to remove this
warning. Since '2+' is a superset of '2', ie. "version 2 or later",
and actually is more reflective of the text found on the file headers
and such we use GPLv2+ and LGPLv2.1+.
