The core of a pv linux guest produced via "xl dump-core" is not usable
as since kernel 4.14 only the linear p2m table is kept if Xen indicates
it is supporting that. Unfortunately xc_core_arch_map_p2m() is still
supporting the 3-level p2m tree only.
Fix that by copying the functionality of map_p2m() from libxenguest to
libxenctrl.
Additionally the mapped p2m isn't of a fixed length now, so the
interface to the mapping functions needs to be adapted. In order not to
add even more parameters, expand struct domain_info_context and use a
pointer to that as a parameter.
This is a backport of upstream commit bd7a29c3d0.
As the original patch includes a modification of a data structure
passed via pointer to a library function, the related function in the
library is renamed in order to be able to spot any external users of
that function. Note that it is extremely unlikely any such users
outside the Xen git tree are existing, so the risk to break any
existing programs is very unlikely. In case such a user is existing,
changing the name of xc_map_domain_meminfo() will at least avoid
silent breakage.

Today tools/libxc needs to be built after tools/libs as libxenctrl is
depending on some libraries in tools/libs. This in turn blocks moving
other libraries depending on libxenctrl below tools/libs.
So carve out libxenctrl from tools/libxc and move it into
tools/libs/ctrl.
