So a user can decide whether to compile a PV shim as part of the tools
build. Note that the default behavior is preserved, which is to build
a PV shim when the target or host (if target is unset) architecture is
64bit x86.

Most pkgconfig files contain a Libs: variable, which is either /usr/lib
or /usr/lib64. If a 32bit and a 64bit variant of xen libraries is
installed, the last one wins. As a result compiling for the other
bitsize will fail.
Instead of sharedir use libdir as install target. This matches both the
documentation and the expected result.

--enable-githttp was introduced. But we missed this comment where it

Also, that commit had the effect of uncondtionally setting GIT_HTTP

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.

pkg-config from FreeBSD ports doesn't have ${prefix}/share/pkgconfig in the
default search path, fix this by having a PKG_INSTALLDIR variable that can
be changed on a per-OS basis.
It would be best to use PKG_INSTALLDIR as defined by the pkg.m4 macro, but
sadly this also reports a wrong value on FreeBSD (${libdir}/pkgconfig, which
expands to /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig by default, and is also _not_ part of
the default pkg-config search path).
This patch should not change the behavior for Linux installs.

The alternative backend (a xen-api/xapi shim) is no longer around and
so this stuff is now just baggage which is getting in the way of
refactoring libxenctrl.
Nested virt probably suffices for this use case now.
This was the last component of the osdep infrastructure, so all the
dynamic loading etc stuff all falls away too.
As part of this I was forced to investigate the twisty
xc_map_foreign_* maze, which I have added to the
toolstack-library-apis doc in the hopes of doing something sensible.
NetBSD and Solaris now call xc_map_foreign_bulk_compat directly from
their xc_map_foreign_bulk, which could have been achieved by using
some ifdefs around a renamed function. This will fall out in the wash
when these functions move to their own library.

Currently we hardcode various paths such as $libexec/xen/{bin,boot},
however some downstreams (notably Debian) would like instead to
install things into $libexec/xen-X.Y/{bin,boot} as part of allowing
multiple versions of the tools packages to be installed.
Since this currently involves patching configure its a bit fiddly,
provide a configure option for the leaf dir instead, name it
--with-libexec-leaf-dir similar to the existing
--with-sysconfig-leaf-dir.
Rather than have the determination of the full path in both configure
and config/Paths.mk.in move it into configure only. Also for
consistency move the other LIBEXEC_* to configure, even though they
are only substituted into Paths.mk.

In 16181cbb (tools: Honor Config.mk debug value, rather than setting our
own), configure doesn't set debug variable anymore. There is, however,
one place that was missed. The file config/Tools.mk.in was still
expecting a @debug@ value from configure. After 16181cbb that value
remained "debug := @debug@" all the time because configure didn't
substitute it.
The consequence was that we couldn't get a debug build even if debug was
set to "y" in Config.mk.
Fix this by removing the stray line "debug := @debug@" in Tools.mk.in.

binutils 2.22 changed ld default from --copy-dt-needed-entries
to -no-copy-dt-needed-entries. This revealed that some objects
are linked implicitly with libtinfo and newer ld fails to build
relevant executables.
Below is short explanation why we should not do that...
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UnderstandingDSOLinkChange says:
The default behaviour for ld (my note: before version 2.22) allows
users to 'indirectly' link to required objects/libraries through
intermediate objects/libraries. While this is convenient, it can
also be dangerous because it makes your program's dependencies tied
to the dependencies of other objects. If those objects ever change
their linkages, they can break your program without any changes
to your own code!
