hvm: start stubdom guid regardless of guiagent_installed (#60 pro)

Alway start stubdom guid, then if guiagent_installed set - start the
target one and when connects, kill stubdom one. This allow the user to
see startup messages so prevent the impression of hang VM.

Note 1: this doesn't work when VM disables SVGA output (just after
windows boot splash screen).
Note 2: gui-daemon sometimes hangs after receiving SIGTERM (libvchan_wait
during libvchan_close). This looks to be stubdom gui agent problem.
