Subject: [PATCH] newvm: Add script to run virt-install

For the longest time, whenever I needed to create a new virtual machine,
I just used `Ctrl+R` to find the last `virt-install` command I had run
and tweaked it for the new machine.  At some point, my `~/.zsh_history`
overflowed, though, so the command I had been running got lost.  To
avoid this silliness in the future, I've created a script that runs
`virt-manager` for me.  As a bonus, it has some configuration flags for
the parameters that often vary between machines.  For most machines,
though, the script can be run as simply as `newvm.sh name`.
