The makeinfo command splits the generated info output in multiple files (in
300 KiB chunks) by default; this meant the build system would have had to
install the multiple QEMU.info-1, QEMU.info-2, etc. files for the info manual
to work as intended. Instead, keep the info manual as one single file by
specifying the --no-split option to makeinfo.
* gnu/packages/patches/qemu-build-info-manual.patch (sphinxinfo)
<makeinfo>: Invoke with the --no-split argument.
* gnu/packages/virtualization.scm (virt-manager): Update to 3.2.0.
[arguments]: Remove #:test-target. Remove fix-qemu-img-reference phase.
Adapt check phase to use pytest, although they still do not run.
[native-inputs]: Add python-docutils. Suggest adding python-pytest to enable
tests.
* gnu/packages/virtualization.scm (libvirt): Update to 7.2.0.
[arguemnts]: Switch to meson, only build system supported by upstream.
[inputs]: Add libssh2 and readline.
[native-inputs]: Add bash-completion, gettext, python-docutils and
rpcsvc-proto.
* gnu/packages/patches/libvirt-add-install-prefix.patch: New file...
* gnu/local.mk: ...add it.
* gnu/packages/patches/libvirt-create-machine-cgroup.patch: Delete file,
merged by upstream.

Take advantage of patches that have been accepted upstream.
These changes lay a foundation for reusing more of Chez's
build process for Racket.
* gnu/packages/patches/chez-scheme-build-util-paths-backport.patch:
New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/chez.scm (chez-scheme)[source](patches): Use it.
[source](snippet): Remove bundled libraries here, not in configure phase.
[inputs]: Organize. Move "nanopass", "stex", and "xorg-rgb" to ...
[native-inputs]: ... this field.
[arguments]: Add (ice-9 ftw) to #:modules. Remove unneeded
'patch-processor-detection' phase. Add 'unpack-nanopass+stex' phase
(refactored from 'configure'). Simplify 'configure' phase by removing
patches that have been upstreamed. Add "--nogzip-man-pages" flag so we can
remove 'make-manpages-writable' phase. Stop ignoring #:configure-flags,
move "--threads" there, and remove unneeded workaround. Add 'prepare-stex'
phase (refactored from 'install-doc'). Use it to streamline 'install-doc'
phase, installing all of the right files into the right places.

Get a patch from upstream that will help us simplify the build process
for the Chez Scheme documentation.
* gnu/packages/chez.scm (chez-stex): Update to commit 5405149.

* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (html-updatable-package?): Return true for
packages with a 'release-monitoring-url' property. This allows us to
cater for packages with source fetched over, say, FTP, but with an HTML
page to monitor.
As per section '16.4.2 Package Naming' in the manual, use hypens instead
of underscores in package names.
* guix/import/go.scm (go-module->guix-package-name): Replace underscores
with hyphens.

The previous instructions were correct, but we got too many bug reports
with a root cause of "did not build Guix yet".
Other parts of the manual already instruct `make && make check`, so this
makes the treatment of building Guix more consistent, too.
* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Instruct the user to run
`make` when building Guix.
