Currently scratch variables allocated by libxl have the same lifetime as
the context. While this is suitable for one off invocations of xl. It is
not so great for a daemon process linking to libxl. In that case there
will be prolific leakage of heap memory.
My proposed solution involves create a new libxl_gc structure, which
contains a pointer to an owning context as well as the garbage
collection data. Top-level library functions which expect to do a lot of
scratch allocations put gc struct on the stack and initialize it with a
macro. Before returning they then call libxl_free_all on this struct.
This means that static helper functions called by such functions will
usually take a gc instead of a ctx as a first parameter.
The patch touches almost every code-path so a close review and testing
would be much appreciated. I have tested with valgrind all of the parts
I could which looked non-straightforward. Suffice to say that it seems
crash-free even if we have exposed a few real memory leaks. These are
for cases where we return eg. block list to an xl caller but there is no
appropriate block_list_free() function to call. Ian Campbells work in
this area should sew up all these loose ends.

Implement PCI pass-through for multi-function devices. The supported BDF
notation is: BB:DD.* - therefore passing-through a subset of functions or

through a single function which will be a virtual function 0.
Letting qemu automatically select the virtual slot is not supported in
multi-function passthrough since the qemu-dm protocol can not actually
handle that case.

NOTE: This functionality depends on a corresponding qemu-dm patch to work as
expected. Should be safe to use with an un-patched qemu-dm as before.
libxl_wait_for_device_model can only wait for one status value, re-work the
API so that a callback function can chose between several different possible
status values for qemu-dm and fix up all callers appropriately.
In the case of PCI device insert we succeed if qemu-dm reports
"pci-device-inserted" and error out instead of hanging forever if it fails
since qemu-dm now reports a status of "pci-insert-failed".

Introduce a new libxl call libxl_device_pci_parse_bdf() and use it
consistently.
This patch also fixes an infinite loop bug in xl create. If there is a
parse-error on any pci config file entry then xl will attempt to skip it, but
since num_pcidevs is used to index the config list and is not incremented when
skipping, this caused an infinite loop. Solve that problem by introducing a new
loop counter variable.
Note that virtual PCI slots are not parsed by the new code. However this is
a step towards support for virtual slots and multi-function device assignment
since only one location in the code will need to be changed now.
