tools/configure.ac: add version check for glib2

xen-unstable fails to build in a SLES10SP4 environment since a long time
because the included version of glib is slightly older than the required
glib version. According to the docs glib version 2.12 includes base64
support, but SLES10 is shipped with glib 2.8.6:

qemu-timer-common.o: In function `init_get_clock':
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/xen-4.2.25432/non-dbg/tools/qemu-xen-dir/qemu-timer-common.c:57:
undefined reference to `clock_gettime'
qga/guest-agent-commands.o: In function `qmp_guest_file_write':
qga/guest-agent-commands.c:249: undefined reference to `g_base64_decode'
qga/guest-agent-commands.o: In function `qmp_guest_file_read':
qga/guest-agent-commands.c:224: undefined reference to `g_base64_encode'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [qemu-ga] Error 1

Add a version check to configure to require at least glib 2.12 to build
qemu-upstream.
