This adds systemd socket activation support for the Ocaml xenstored.
Ocaml lacks systemd library support so we provide our own C helpers
as is done with other functionality lacking on Ocaml.
Active sockets enables oxenstored to be loaded only if required by a system
onto which Xen is installed on. Socket activation is handled by
systemd, once a port for a service which claims a socket is used
systemd will start the required services for it, on demand. For more
details on socket activation refer to Lennart's socket-activation
post regarding this [0].
An important difference with socket activation is that systemd will set
FD_CLOEXEC for us on the socket before giving it to us, we'll sprinkly
the Unix.set_close_on_exec for LSB init next as a separate commit.
Right now this code adds a no-op for this functionality, leaving the
enablement to be done later once systemd is properly hooked into
the build system. The socket activation is ordered in aligment with
the socket activation order passed on to systemd.

This will be used later for dynamic configuration paths on C code.

The provenance of the m4 pkg.m4 macro library was not documented
and it was not clear how and if we can update this without breaking
things. Document where this comes from, update us to the latest
release from git and put a warning about avoiding private evolutions
so that instead things go upstream.
The pkg-config m4 macro library comes from the upstream pkg-config
git repository [0]. If you update the m4 library update this file
with provenance and last commit ID information. For documentation
on how to use this read the pkg-config(1) man page.

glib: Fix Makefiles to suppress warnings from automake
With the newly added glib.mk, some of the noinst_* variables need to use
+= in the evaluation to avoid multiple definition warnings from
automake.

[ ijc -- ran autogen.sh ]
With some new functionality introduced we can't keep around the old cache,
but more specifically at times autogen.sh can produce inconsistent
results without considering all files obsolete. The cost of considering
all files obsolete is small so just force it.

On a Thinkpad T4440p with OpenSUSE tumbleweed with v3.15-rc4
and today's latest xen tip from the git tree strace -f reveals
we end up on a never ending wait shortly after
write(20, "backend/console/5\0", 18 <unfinished ...>
This is right before we just wait on the qemu process which we
had mmap'd for. Without this you'll end up getting stuck on a
loop if mmap() worked but madvise() did not. While at it I noticed
even the mmap() error fail was not being checked, fix that too.
