During kexec all old watches have to be removed, otherwise the new
kernel will receive unexpected events. Allow a guest to reset itself
and cleanup all of its watches and transactions.
Add a new XS_RESET_WATCHES command to do the reset on behalf of the
guest.
(Changes by iwj: specify the argument to be a single nul byte. Permit
read-only clients to use the new command.)

With our switching away from supporting 32-bit Dom0 operation, users
complained that attempts (perhaps due to lack of knowledge of that
change) to boot the no longer privileged kernel in Dom0 resulted in
apparently silent failure. To make the mismatch explicit and visible,
add dom0 feature flag that the kernel can set to indicate operation as
dom0 is supported.
Due to the way elf_xen_parse_features() worked up to now (getting
fixed here), adding features indications to the old, string based ELF
note would make the respective kernel unusable on older hypervisors.
For that reason, a new ELF Note is being introduced that allows
specifying supported features as a bit array instead (with features
unknown to the hypervisor simply ignored, as now also done by
elf_xen_parse_features(), whereas here unknown kernel-required
features still keep the kernel [and hence VM] from booting).
Introduce and use elf_note_numeric_array() to be forward
compatible (or else an old hypervisor wouldn't be able to parse kernel
specified features occupying more than 64 bits - thanks, Ian!).

This patch makes device_model_{version,override} work for pure pv
guest, so that users can specify upstream qemu as pure pv backend
other than traditional qemu-xen.
This patch also adds device_model_args_{pv,hvm} options for pv and
hvm guest respectively.
Internally, original libxl__create_xenpv_qemu allocates a new empty
dm_info (struct libxl_device_model_info) for every xenpv qemu created.
Now the caller of libxl__create_xenpv_qemu is responsible for
allocating this dm_info.

Support TSC Rate MSR and enable TSC scaling for
nested virtualization.
With it, guest VMs don't need take #VMEXIT to calculate a translated
TSC value when it is running under TSC emulation mode.
I measured native performance of the rdtsc instruction
in the l2 guest with xen-on-xen and both host and
and l1 guest run under TSC emulation mode.
TSC scaling just needs MSR emulation and correct tsc offset
calculation to be done and thus can be emulated also on older
hardware. In this case rdtsc instruction is intercepted and
handled by the host directly and safes the cost of a full
VMRUN/VMEXIT emulation cycle.

The result of a CPUID Extended Topology Enumeration leaf for PV guests
is invalid as the level in ECX is ignored. This can cause some guests
to loop endlessly when trying to enumerate the topology.
Since the physical topology isn't useful to PV guests set the topology
leaf as unsupported.
Guests affected include Linux kernels prior 2.6.32 where a workaround
was applied ("xen: mask extended topology info in cpu",
