Disable KVM support if the kernel modules have broken memory slot handling

Prior to kvm-80, memory slot deletion was broken in the KVM kernel 
modules.  In kvm-81, a new capability is introduced to signify that this
problem has been fixed.

Since we rely on being able to delete memory slots, refuse to work with 
any kernel module that does not have this capability present.
