Hey folks, Before we bump the agreed upon[1] minimum versions for libvirt and QEMU for 'Stein', we need to do the tedious work of picking the NEXT_MIN_* versions for the 'T' (which is still in the naming phase) release, which will come out in the autumn (Sep-Nov) of 2019. Proposal

The last version bump was in "Pike" release (commit: b980df0, 11-Feb-2017), and we didn't do any bump during "Queens". So it's time to increment the versions (which will also makes us get rid of some backward compatibility cruft), and pick future versions of libvirt and QEMU.
