Some frontend drivers will handle dynamic resizing of PV disks, so set up
the BlockDevOps resize_cb() method during xen_block_realize() to allow
this to be done.

This patch adds create and destroy function for XenBlockDevice-s so that
they can be created automatically when the Xen toolstack instantiates a new
PV backend via xenstore. When the XenBlockDevice is created this way it is
also necessary to create a 'drive' which matches the configuration that the
Xen toolstack has written into xenstore. This is done by formulating the
parameters necessary for each 'blockdev' layer of the drive and then using
qmp_blockdev_add() to create the layers. Also, for compatibility with the
legacy 'xen_disk' implementation, an iothread is automatically created for
the new XenBlockDevice. This, like the driver layers, will be destroyed
after the XenBlockDevice is unrealized.
The legacy backend scan for 'qdisk' is removed by this patch, which makes
the 'xen_disk' code is redundant. The code will be removed by a subsequent
patch.

...and wire in the dataplane.
This patch adds the remaining code to make the xen-block XenDevice
functional. The parameters that a block frontend expects to find are
populated in the backend xenstore area, and the 'ring-ref' and
'event-channel' values specified in the frontend xenstore area are
mapped/bound and used to set up the dataplane.

A Xen PV frontend communicates its state to the PV backend by writing to
the 'state' key in the frontend area in xenstore. It is therefore
necessary for a XenDevice implementation to be notified whenever the
value of this key changes.
This patch adds code to do this as follows:
- an 'fd handler' is registered on the libxenstore handle which will be
triggered whenever a 'watch' event occurs
- primitives are added to xen-bus-helper to add or remove watch events
- a list of Notifier objects is added to XenBus to provide a mechanism
to call the appropriate 'watch handler' when its associated event
occurs
The xen-block implementation is extended with a 'frontend_changed' method,
which calls as-yet stub 'connect' and 'disconnect' functions when the
relevant frontend state transitions occur. A subsequent patch will supply
a full implementation for these functions.

This patch adds a new source module, xen-bus-helper.c, which builds on
basic libxenstore primitives to provide functions to create (setting
permissions appropriately) and destroy xenstore areas, and functions to
'printf' and 'scanf' nodes therein. The main xen-bus code then uses
these primitives [1] to initialize and destroy the frontend and backend
areas for a XenDevice during realize and unrealize respectively.
The 'xen-block' implementation is extended with a 'get_name' method that
returns the VBD number. This number is required to 'name' the xenstore
areas.
NOTE: An exit handler is also added to make sure the xenstore areas are
cleaned up if QEMU terminates without devices being unrealized.
[1] The 'scanf' functions are actually not yet needed, but they will be
needed by code delivered in subsequent patches.

This patch adds new XenDevice-s: 'xen-disk' and 'xen-cdrom', both derived
from a common 'xen-block' parent type. These will eventually replace the
'xen_disk' (note the underscore rather than hyphen) legacy PV backend but
it is illustrative to build up the implementation incrementally, along with
the XenBus/XenDevice framework. Subsequent patches will therefore add to
these devices' implementation as new features are added to the framework.
After this patch has been applied it is possible to instantiate new
'xen-disk' or 'xen-cdrom' devices with a single 'vdev' parameter, which
accepts values adhering to the Xen VBD naming scheme [1]. For example, a
command-line instantiation of a xen-disk can be done with an argument
similar to the following:
-device xen-disk,vdev=hda
The implementation of the vdev parameter formulates the appropriate VBD
number for use in the PV protocol.
