and PV/ramdisk
Add support for 'file:' and 'data:' URI schemes for the parameters
'PV/kernel' and 'PV/ramdisk' in the VM.create() call. The 'data:'
scheme handling enables using a file which is stored inside the
management system (from where the XenAPI call is send) as kernel or
ramdisk.
Notes:
o all included: a detailed description can be found in the xenapi
documentation
o bumped up the version of the API document to 1.0.8 (because of
(minimal) interface extension)
o Future enhancements (like http:, ftp: schemes) fit seamlessly into
the current design / classes
o Unittest cases and xm-test case included

This patch replaces calls to get_dev_property() by calls to
get_dev_property_by_uuid() in XenAPI.py and fixes the implementation
of get_dev_property_by_uuid.
I am adding a test case to the xapi grouptests to verify the fixes.
There's a FIXME note in the test case which should be looked at.

- renames the XenManagedDomain.py file to XenAPIDomain.py, since this
name better reflects its functionality/purpose
- adds domain tracking to the XenAPIDomain class so that xend-managed
domains can be deleted in an 'atexit' handler upon test case termination
- adds one basic xapi-related test which is part of the grouptests
'xapi'
- refactors the vtpm-related test using xen-api and adds it to the
grouptest 'xapi'
- adds documentation to the README for how to configure xm and xend to
use XML-RPC or Xen-API for communication
