Rob Hoes a99d55edd4 libxl: idl: add Enumeration.value_namespace property
This allows setting the namespace for values of an Enumeration to be different
from the namespace of the Enumeration itself.

Rob Hoes f25452103b libxl: ocaml: support for KeyedUnion in the bindings generator.
A KeyedUnion consists of two fields in the containing struct. First an
enum field ("e") used as a descriminator and second a union ("u")
containing potentially anonymous structs associated with each enum
value.

We map the anonymous structs to structs named after the descriminator
field ("e") and the specific enum values. We then declare an ocaml
variant type name e__union mapping each enum value to its associated
struct.

So given IDL:

foo = Enumeration("foo", [
    (0, "BAR"),
    (1, "BAZ"),
])
s = Struct("s", [
    ("u", KeyedUnion(none, foo, "blargle", [
        ("bar", Struct(...xxx...)),
        ("baz", Struct(...yyy...)),
    ])),
])

We generate C:

enum foo { BAR, BAZ };
struct s {
    enum foo blargle;
    union {
        struct { ...xxx... } bar;
        struct { ...yyy... } baz;
    } u;
}

and map this to ocaml

type foo = BAR | BAZ;

module S = struct

    type blargle_bar = ...xxx...;

    type blargle_baz = ...yyy...;

    type blargle__union = Bar of blargle_bar | Baz of blargle_baz;

    type t =
    {
        blargle : blargle__union;
    }
end

These type names are OK because they are already within the namespace
associated with the struct "s".

If the struct associated with bar is empty then we don't bother with
blargle_bar of "of blargle_bar".

No actually change in the generated code since we don't generate any
KeyedUnions yet.

The actual implementation was inspired by

Ian Campbell 618a40391f libxl: add a new Array type to the IDL
And make all the required infrastructure updates to enable this.

Since there are currently no uses of this type there is no change to
the generated code.

Ian Campbell 53ec331a4b libxl: Make IDL KeyedUnion keyvar an idl.Field
This is more logical than having keyvar_name and keyvar_type members.

Ian Campbell a6beb5286e libxl: Rename libxl IDL infrastructure.
Originally libxltypes.py provided the infrastructure and libxl.idl provided the
specific types.

In 23887:a543e10211f7 libxl.idl became libxl_types.idl (to allow for
libxl_types_internal.idl) which means we now have libxl_types.FOO and
libxltypes.FOO providing different things and annoying people in tab
completion.

Rename the infrastructure as idl.
