This patch adds a systemd sleep hook script to stop the xen-watchdog
service before system suspend and start it again after resume.
Stopping the watchdog before a system suspend operation may look unsafe.
Let's imagine the following situation: 'systemctl suspend' does not
interact with the running service at all. In such a case, the Xen
watchdog daemon freezes just before suspend. If this happens, for
example, right before sending a ping, and Xen has not yet marked the
domain as suspended (is_shutting_down), the Xen watchdog timer may
trigger a false alert.
This is an almost impossible situation, because typically:
ping time = watchdog timeout / 2
and the watchdog timeout is usually set to a relatively large value
(dozens of seconds).
Still, this is more likely with very short watchdog timeouts. It may
happen in the following scenarios:
* Significant delays occur between freezing Linux tasks and
triggering the ACPI or PSCI sleep request or handler.
* Long delays happen inside Xen between the entrance to the sleep
trigger and the actual forwarding of the sleep request further.
A similar situation may occur on resume with short timeouts. During the
resume operation, Xen restores timers and the domain context. The Xen
watchdog timer also resumes. If it schedules the domain right before the
watchdog timeout expires, and the daemon responsible for pinging is not
yet running, a timeout might occur.
Both scenarios are rare and typically require very small watchdog
timeouts combined with significant delays in Xen or the Linux kernel
during suspend/resume flows.
Conceptually, however, if activating and pinging the Xen watchdog is the
responsibility of the domain and its services, then the domain should
also manage the watchdog service/daemon lifecycle. This is similar to
what is already done by the Xen watchdog driver inside the Linux kernel.

Add a "--disable-pygrub" option for being able to disable the build
and installation of pygrub.
There are two main reasons to do so:
- A main reason to use pygrub is to allow a PV guest to choose its
bitness (32- or 64-bit). Pygrub allows that by looking into the boot
image and to start the guest in the correct mode depending on the
kernel selected. With 32-bit PV guests being deprecated and the
possibility to even build a hypervisor without 32-bit PV support,
this use case is gone for at least some configurations.
- Pygrub is running in dom0 with root privileges. As it is operating
on guest controlled data (the boot image) and taking decisions based
on this data, there is a higher security risk. Not being possible
to use pygrub is thus a step towards a reduction of attack surface.
Default is still to build and install pygrub.

9pfs support has been a documented feature since Xen 4.9, but QEMU will
not be built with backend support unless VirtFS is enabled, which is
predicated on the libcap and libattr dev packages being installed. This is
not obvious to anyone intending to use 9pfs.
This patch adds an 'enable-9pfs' option to configure which, if specified,
will cause '--enable-virtfs' to be passed to QEMU's configure. This will
cause the dependency on libcap and libattr to be called out if the packages
are not in installed.
For completeness, specifying 'disable-9pfs' will cause '--disable-virtfs' to
be passed to QEMU's confgure and not specifying an option will keep the
previous behaviour of predicating VirtFS on whether the libcap and libattr
packages are installed.

The debug option in Config.mk affects hypervisor, tools and stubdom by
appending different flags to CFLAGS. Mini-os under extra is not
affected because it already has its own build system when it is
separated from xen.git.
It is undesirable because now hypervisor build is affected by both
Kconfig and debug.
Disentangle the semantics of debug by pushing relevant options to
individual sub-systems.
For hypervisor, the flags previously added by debug option is now
controlled by CONFIG_DEBUG.
For tools, flags are moved from config/*.mk into tools/Rules.mk.
For stubdom, because it unilaterally sets debug=y before including
top-level Config.mk, we only need to move the debug build set of flags
into stubdom Makefile.
Specifically there are some considerations on what flags are picked:
1. we don't need -fno-optimize-sibling-calls anymore because gcc doc
indicates that it is not enabled for -O1, which we already set in the
debug build.
2. for tools we use -O0 -g3 in Rules.mk because they already take
precedence over the flags set in config/*.mk.
3. for hypervisor we don't add -fno-omit-frame-pointer to debug build
because that's controlled by CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.
This patch doesn't intend to tune those flags, but to provide identical
set of effective flags as before. The debug option in Config.mk will
only affect tools components after this patch is applied.

sadly this also reports a wrong value on FreeBSD (${libdir}/pkgconfig, which

NetBSD and Solaris now call xc_map_foreign_bulk_compat directly from
