[PATCH v4 1/4] cutils: Introduce bundle mechanism

[Akihiko Odaki]

Developers often run QEMU without installing. The bundle mechanism
allows to look up files which should be present in installation even in
such a situation.

It is a general mechanism and can find any files located relative
to the installation tree. The build tree must have a new directory,
qemu-bundle, to represent what files the installation tree would
have for reference by the executables.
