A mutex created with pthread_mutex_init, like ctx->lock, may need to
be destroyed with pthread_mutex_destroy.
Also, previously, if libxl__init_recursive_mutex failed, the nascent
ctx would be leaked. Add some comments which will hopefully make
these kind of mistakes less likely in future.

eventloop_iteration's head comment says that it must be called with
the ctx locked exactly once, and this is indeed true, and it's done
correctly at both the call sites.
However, it takes out the lock an additional time itself. This is
wrong because it prevents the unlocks around poll from being
effective. This would mean that a multithreaded event-loop using
program might suffer from undesired blocking, as one thread trying to
enter libxl might end up stalled by another thread waiting for a slow
event. So remove those two lock calls.
Also add a couple of comments documenting the locking behaviour of
libxl__ao_inprogress and libxl__egc_cleanup.

libxl__initiate_device_remove might discover that the operation was
complete, immediately (typically, if the device is already removed).
Previously, in this situation, it would return 0 to the caller but
never call libxl__ao_complete. Fix this. This necessitates passing
the egc in from the functions which are the ao initiators.

Make it possible to complete an ao during its initating function.
Previously this was not generally possible because initiators did not
have an egc. But there is no reason why an ao initiator should not
have an egc, so make the standard macros provide one.
Change the internal documentation comments accordingly. (This change,
which means that an initiator function may call a completion callback
directly, is already consistent with the documented external API.)
We also invent of a new state flag "constructing" which indicates
whether we are between ao__create and ao__inprogress. This is a
slightly optimisation which allows ao_complete to not bother poking
the wakeup pipe, since the logic in ao__inprogress will not run the
event loop if the ao is complete on entry.
Also fix the wording in the libxl_internal.h comment forbidding use of
ao_how-taking functions from within libxl. (There are sadly currently
some such functions.)

By default pciback only allows PV guests to write "known safe" values into
PCI config space. But many devices require writes to other areas of config
space in order to operate properly. One way to do that is with the "quirks"
interface, which specifies areas known safe to a particular device; the
other way is to mark a device as "permissive", which tells pciback to allow
all config space writes for that domain and device.
This adds a "permissive" flag to the libxl_pci struct and teaches libxl how
to write the appropriate value into sysfs to enable the permissive feature for
devices being passed through. It also adds the permissive config options either
on a per-device basis, or as a global option in the xl command-line.
Because of the potential stability and security implications of enabling
permissive, the flag is left off by default.

Upstream the "xen/acpi-processor: C and P-state driver that
uploads said data to hypervisor." takes care of uploading power information
information that normally a cpu frequency scaling driver would using
in the initial domain. We want the hypervisor to take that data and
make good usage of it.
Fortunatly for us we do not have to worry about the native cpu frequency
scaling drivers being loaded first, as the upstream commit:
"xen/cpufreq: Disable the cpu frequency scaling drivers from loading."
takes care of that. Meaning we can load the xen-acpi-processor at any time.
By default that driver is built as a module - and since we are
the only user of it - we should load it.

One of the bottlenecks with foreign page-in request is the poor retry
handling in linux_privcmd_map_foreign_bulk(). It sends one request per
paged gfn at a time and it waits until the gfn is accessible. This
causes long delays in mmap requests from qemu-dm and xc_save.
Instead of sending one request at a time, walk the entire gfn list and
send batches of mmap requests. They will eventually end up in the pager's
request ring (if it has room again), and will fill up this ring so that
in turn the pager can also process page-in in batches.
