* gnu/packages/virtualization.scm (libvirt): Update to 7.1.0.
[source]: Remove libvirt-create-machine-cgroup.patch, add
libvirt-do-not-create-var-dirs.patch.
[build-system]: Switch to meson-build-system.
[arguments]: Use meson-0.55. Adapt #:configure-flags for meson, there is no
need for --docdir anymore. Remove fix-BOURNE_SHELL-definition phase. Add
fix-sysconfdir-and-localstatedir phase. Adapt disable-broken-tests to meson.
[native-inputs]: Add python-docutils and rpcsvc-proto.
* gnu/packages/patches/libvirt-create-machine-cgroup.patch: Delete.
* gnu/packages/patches/libvirt-do-not-create-var-dirs.patch: New patch.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add new patch, remove the other.

-Subject: [PATCH] vircgroup: Ensure /machine group is associated with its
- parent.
-
-Call first virCgroupNew on the parent group virCgroupNewPartition if
-it is available on before the creation of the child group. This
-ensures that the creation of a first level group on the unified
-architecture, as the check at virCgroupV2ParseControllersFile as the
-parent file is there.

-Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1760233
