entries in vif to guide the configuration. This is much less confusing.
Closes bug #440.
Change the example configuration files to match. Also change them to use the
XenSource OUI in the MAC addresses. Also change xm-test to match.
Remove the obsolete ipaddr configuration entry, and the backend_mac vif config
option.
Remove the preprocess_vifs function, folding it into the configure_vifs
function, and creating a simple comma_sep_kv_to_dict helper.
Remove the configure_vfr method, as it is unused.

CPUs a domains' vcpus can use. The older 'cpu' config option is
prepended to the list of cpus to use and will keep the behavior of
pinning VCPU0.
The cpus option supports ranges and negation, so:
cpus = "0-3,5,^1" produces -> [0,2,3,5]
The list is circular, so in a domain with the following config:
vcpus = 4
cpus = "0,3,7" # Use any of 0, 3, 7 for this domain.
would see vcpus 0-3 pinned to cpus 0,3,7,0 respectively.
Also, the pin operation is moved before the memory reservation as vcpu
to cpu mapping will be helpful for future NUMA work when trying to
allocate pages close to the physical cpus being used.
An update to the display of cpumap was needed to normalize the cpumap
values to the range of possible cpus.
I've also included some text for the xmdomain.cfg(5) man page.

they actually take effect. Added behaviour "rename-restart" for debugging
purposes, that renames the domain out of the way, preserving it for debugging,
but starts a new domain too.
Add explicit remove of old domain paths when creating a new domain, to avoid
stale information affecting us (by shutting the domain down, for example).
