The qemu-img, qemu-nbd and qemu-io tools are quite useful in their
own right. eg LXC can use qemu-img and qemu-nbd to support running
of containers with qcow2 images. As such it is reasonable to allow
building these tools, without enabling any QEMU targets. This change
does two things:

 - Allows passing an empty string to the --target-list arg
   to disable all targets
 - Adds --enable-tools/--disable-tools args to enable/disable
   building of qemu-img, qemu-nbd and qemu-io independantly
   of whether any softmmu target is disabled. The builds
   default to enabled at all times.

With this you can do

  ./configure --target-list=

and get a build that only includes the basic tools

Feels to me like these should be separate patches.

I think the code ends up a bit simpler if you start with
target_list=DEFAULT
and use that as the indicator of 'use default list' rather
than the empty string. However that does add the 'undocumented
feature' that '--target-list=DEFAULT' becomes valid...

An undefined target_list might be a better indicator
and does not add undocumented features.

I appreciate the possibility of default builds without tools:
they save time when running 'git bisect' or in cross builds
when the tools are not needed.

My private QEMU has this feature since several years, but
uses an approach which differs from this patch: there are always
Makefile targets 'doc' and 'tools'. By default, 'all' includes
'doc' and 'tools', but they can be disabled using configure
options (--disable-docs, --disable-tools). Even when they
are disabled, it is possible to run 'make doc' or 'make tools'.
