nova-compute-kvm -> nova-compute-libvirt -> nova-compute -> nova-compute-kvm | nova-compute-hypervisor

this is a little circular - installing 'nova-compute-kvm' dtrt and
ensures nova-compute-libvirt is configured before nova-compute-kvm,
resulting in the correct group membership of nova->libvirt, but install
of 'nova-compute' results in the group membership being setup after the
nova-compute daemon starts.

Result is that on first exec, nova-compute can't access the libvirt
socket, but the systemd unit restarts the daemon a few times until the
permission is correct.
