Install virtkvm

After installing the package, you should create a configuration file to specify the libvirt settings, HTTP server settings, USB device list and display list. An example configuration file is provided here: example_config.yaml. Virtkvm depends on ddcutil to do the switching of the display inputs, so that utility needs to be available in PATH.
