virtme-ng v1.25 is out!

This is a minor release with just a small change, but it was worthwhile to cut a new version, because it can significantly improve boot time with the microvm architecture (simply by enabling the RTC and avoiding unnecessary boot time that most kernels spend probing for a non-existent RTC).

And with this applied I can break the 1s boot-time limit on my laptop and start a vng instance in only ~0.93s!
