+1  virtcontainers/pkg/qemu should be in sync with kata-containers/govmm repo

Hi all

Moving the source into kata-containers repo and keeping the original golang package as a copy may be a good idea.

Like the Kubernetes way: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/tree/master/staging#using-staged-repositories-from-kubernetes-code

It will only need external work to sync the code.

Even if that's the case, we can still keep some external repository
in sync with the internal code, e.g. using git subtrees and exporting
govmm "releases" for external consumers.
