By commit 67a1de0d, When we perform 'git pull && make && sudo make install',
In 'make' stage a qemu-version.h.tmp will be generated. If the content of
qemu-version.h.tmp and qemu-version.h aren't consistent, The qemu-version.h.tmp
will be renamed to qemu-version.h. Because of the target FORCE, The same action
will be do again in 'make install' stage.

In 'make install' stage, If there is no qemu-version.h.tmp exists and we run
'make install' with sudo, The owner and group of new qemu-version.h.tmp will be
privileged user/group. When we run 'make' next time, qemu-version.h.tmp can't
be overwritten because of permission issue.

This patch uses 'cp' instead of 'mv' to keep the qemu-version.h.tmp file, So
during the 'sudo make install' stage, new qemu-version.h.tmp's owner and group
wont be set to privileged user/group.
