Create fuel kvm plugin
Upstream status: NA
In Brahmaputra release, KVM plugin functionality was bundled inside the
fuel-plugin-qemu. In order for easy maintenance, the KVM plugin functionality
would be separated from fuel-plugin-qemu and moved into an independent
fuel-plugin-kvm and keep the source code here starting from Colorado release.
