libvirt: Change license to LGPLv2.1+
libvirt is to a large extent licensed under LGPLv2.1 (or later) rather
than GPLv2. From my investigations, there are only some tests and a
couple of files under tools are licensed as GPL. Other than that, files
are generally licensed as LGPL. My recommendation is therefore to set
the default license to LGPLv2.1+, and to add a LICENSE_${PN}-ptest that
is set to LGPLv2.1+ & GPLv2+ if a ptest package is added. This is
preferred to avoid having to specify explicit licenses for every other
package, such as the auto generated libvirt-locale-XX packages.
