[Bug 1170325] [NEW] Facter 1.6.X not considering Qemu/KVM virtual type

[rustx]

Public bug reported:

On ubuntu 12.04 LTS, the official version for the facter package is
1.6.5-ubuntu1.

ii facter 1.6.5-1ubuntu1 collect and display facts about the system

The is_virtual? method is not recognized on last version of KVM, because
of the output of /proc/cpuinfo, which does not contains “Qemu Server”
Infos.

model name : Common KVM processor

The workaround was added in the next versions of facter, and so I would
like to provide you this patch, which fixes this bug on Ubuntu 12.04
LTS.
