Is there a reason virtnbd-nbdkit-plugin is in /usr/bin? #253

Description

@cmadamsgit

virtnbd-nbdkit-plugin gets installed in /usr/bin, as a non-executable file. That triggers errors from rpmlint for example. The proper place to me (at least in a packaged install) would be /usr/share.

I'm looking at submitting a package to Fedora, and I expect that would be a blocker. I could use a downstream patch to move it to /usr/share, and change libvirtnbdbackup/map/requirements.py to hard-code the path (which should be fine for an RPM install anyway), but wanted to check before making such a change.

rpmlint also doesn't like the shebang lines at the start of the module files (which aren't needed so will probably also strip out for an RPM).
