The current base directory /var/xen/dump for domU dumps will be patched
to /var/lib/xen/dump by most distros to follow FHS.
This change does three things:
- change the default from /var/xen/dump to /var/lib/xen/dump
- provide a configure option to avoid patching the source.
- update docs to refer to the new default location

In 952944f7 "QEMU_TAG update" my tag update script mangled the
machinery which sets QEMU_TRADITIONAL_REVISION, by replacing the first
assignment to QEMU_TRADITIONAL_REVISION it found rather than the one
which ought to have been replaced.
The result was that:
* From that commit on, QEMU_TAG was no longer honoured although
QEMU_TRADITIONAL_REVISION still was
* That particular update to QEMU_TRADITIONAL_REVISION's default
value was effective
* The next attempt to update QEMU_TRADITIONAL_REVISION, in
1fc3aeb3 "libxl: use new QEMU xenstore protocol" was totally
ineffective.
Fix this by restoring the transfer from QEMU_TAG. The effects are:
* Once more, honour QEMU_TAG.
* Belatedly apply the qemu-trad change part of "libxl: use new QEMU
xenstore protocol.
(I have also fixed my script to not do this again.)

Originally both QEMU traditional and QEMU upstream used hardcoded
/local/domain/0 paths. This patch changes the protocol to use
/local/domain/$dm_domid path.
For QEMU traditional and upstream without stubdom, $dm_domid is 0 so
the path is in fact still /local/domain/0.
For QEMU traditional stubdom, this is incompatible protocol change.
However QEMU traditional is shipped with Xen so we are allowed to do
such change. This change requires to corresponding QEMU traditional
changeset.
There is no compatibility issue with QEMU upstream stubdom, because QEMU
upstream stubdom doesn't exist yet.
Watch /local/domain/$dm_domid/device-model/$domid/state, wait until
state turns "running" then unpause guest.
LIBXL_STUBDOM_START_TIMEOUT is the timeout used wait for stubdom to be
ready. My test on a very old machine (Core 2 6400) showed that it might
need more than 20s before the stubdom is ready to serve DomU.

Set CONFIG_LEAF_DIR with configure to give control if needed. The
check for the correct value if the option is not specified is tricky.
Since other packages (such as grub2) started to populate also
/etc/default/ a given system may have both directories.
Use "default" only if /etc/sysconfig does not exist. "sysconfig"
remains the default.
Move the variable from StdGNU.mk to Linux.mk because thats the only
place where it is used.

[ ijc -- ran autogen.sh as requested ]
The current usage of LIBEXEC is bogus. It describes the directory for
private xen executables. Other places create their own, similar
libexecdir path as $prefix/lib/xen/*.
Additional two other variables are used to describe similar paths:
PRIVATE_BINDIR and PRIVATE_PREFIX
The autoconf documentation refers to libexec as a directory for
executables and stuff which is called by other programs, not by the
user.
Adjust all places that want libexecdir as a target path. LIBEXEC refers
now to the base directory. Three convenience variables are used to refer
to paths to private binaries, libs and include files.
In the systemd files LIBEXEC_BIN is substituted, so this variable has to
be present in autoconf. All other variables are expanded in Paths.mk
because they are only used in Makefiles.
Most users of LIBEXEC are updated to use LIBEXEC_BIN because that is
what they want.
Users of PRIVATE_BINDIR are updated to use LIBEXEC_BIN because that is
what they want. PRIVATE_BINDIR and PRIVATE_PREFIX usage is removed by
this patch, in favour of LIBXEC_BIN and LIBEXEC
An internal libxl function was removed. A single helper to retrieve
LIBEXEC_BIN remains.
As suggested by the autoconf documentation, configure appends the
package name to LIBEXEC to make sure the provided directory really
refers to xen. This makes sure "make uninstall" preserves the real
libexecdir.

Also moves xc_dom.h to include as it is used often by other xen tools.
Use the new include subdirectories to build Xen tools, qemu-xen and

Add the old libxc include path to the programs that need it to build,

genpath is a detail of buildmakevars2file. Replace the dependency to
genpath with the actual buildmakevars2file target. This change by
itself does not fix any bug. Upcoming changes will add dependencies to
$(target), but no rule exist to create $(target).
To force a rebuild of the $(1) rule the target now depends on the
existing .phony target. This dummy target is already used elsewhere in
the code.
No change in behaviour is expected by this patch.

We have four different external trees, and four different naming
conventions for specifying the URL, where they live, and what revision
to check out.
Normalize config options on the following bases:
- QEMU_UPSTREAM
- QEMU_TRADITIONAL
- SEABIOS_UPSTREAM
- OVMF_UPSTREAM
The following suffixes for all trees:
- _URL : A remote repository to clone from
- _REVISION : The revision to check out
And the following suffixes for the qemu trees:
- _INTREE : The location of an inlined tree (for tarball releases)
- _LOC : Where to actually look (either a directory or a URL)
The following parameters are still supported for backwards
compatibility:
- CONFIG_QEMU (=> QEMU_TRADITIONAL_LOC)
- QEMU_REMOTE (=> QEMU_TRADITIONAL_URL)
- QEMU_TAG (=> QEMU_TRADITIONAL_REVISION)
- SEABIOS_UPSTREAM_TAG (=> SEABIOS_UPSTREAM_REVISION)

Currently xen, qemu-xen, and qemu-xen-traditional are kept in separate
repositories, but when we release them as a tarball, qemu-xen and
qemu-xen-traditional are in-lined into the tools/ directory.
In order to make this "just work", at the moment developer doing the
release manually modifies Config.mk as part of the relase process so
that CONFIG_QEMU and QEMU_UPSTREAM_URL point into the tools/ directory
instead.
Modify Config.mk to automatically check there before trying a remote
repository.
