Enabling it using an HVM param is fragile, and complicates the logic when
deciding whether options that interact with altp2m can also be enabled.
Leave the HVM param value for consumption by the guest, but prevent it from
being set. Enabling is now done using and additional altp2m specific field in
xen_domctl_createdomain.
Note that albeit only currently implemented in x86, altp2m could be implemented
in other architectures, hence why the field is added to xen_domctl_createdomain
instead of xen_arch_domainconfig.

On a stress test running 1000 VMs flamegraphs have shown that
`oxenstored` spends a large amount of time in `Hashtbl.copy` and the GC.
Hashtable complexity:
* read/write: O(1) average
* copy: O(domains) -- copying the entire table
Map complexity:
* read/write: O(log n) worst case
* copy: O(1) -- a word copy
We always perform at least one 'copy' when processing each xenstore
packet (regardless whether it is a readonly operation or inside a
transaction or not), so the actual complexity per packet is:
* Hashtbl: O(domains)
* Map: O(log domains)

`Tag_cons` is `0` and is meant to be used as the tag argument for
`caml_alloc`/`caml_alloc_small` when constructing a non-empty list.
The empty list is `Val_emptylist` instead, which is really just `Val_int(0)`.
Assigning `0` to a list value like this is equivalent to assigning the naked
pointer `NULL` to the field. Naked pointers are not valid in OCaml 5, however
even in OCaml <5.x any attempt to iterate on the list will lead to a segfault.
The list currently only has an opaque type, so no code would have reason to
iterate on it currently, but we shouldn't construct invalid OCaml values that
might lead to a crash when exploring the type.
`Val_emptylist` is available since OCaml 3.01 as a constant.

The modification to the _H() macro for Ocaml 5 support introduced a subtle

https://ocaml.org/manual/intfc.html#ss:parallel-execution-long-running-c-code
"After caml_release_runtime_system() was called and until
caml_acquire_runtime_system() is called, the C code must not access any OCaml
data, nor call any function of the run-time system, nor call back into OCaml
code."
Previously, the value was a naked C pointer, so dereferencing it wasn't
"accessing any Ocaml data", but the fix to avoid naked C pointers added a
layer of indirection through an Ocaml Custom object, meaning that the common
pattern of using _H() in a blocking section is unsafe.
In order to fix:
* Drop the _H() macro and replace it with a static inline xch_of_val().
* Opencode the assignment into Data_custom_val() in the constructors.
* Rename "value xch" parameters to "value xch_val" so we can consistently
have "xc_interface *xch" on the stack, and obtain the pointer with the GC
lock still held.
* Drop the _D() macro while at it, because it's just pointless indirection.

Closing the evtchn handle will unbind and free all local ports. The new

However, it turns out that the Windows PV drivers also rebind their local port
too across suspend/resume, leaving (o)xenstored with a stale idea of the
remote port to use. In this case, reusing the established connection is the
only robust option.
Therefore:
* Have oxenstored open /dev/xen/evtchn without CLOEXEC at start of day.
* Extend the handover information with the evtchn fd, domexc virq local port,
and the local port number for each domain connection.
* Have (the new) oxenstored recover the open handle using Xeneventchn.fdopen,
and use the provided local ports rather than trying to rebind them.

Inter-domain event channels are always a pair of local and remote ports.
Right now the handling is asymmetric, caused by the fact that the evtchn is
bound after the associated Domain object is constructed.
First, move binding of the event channel into the Domain.make() constructor.
This means the local port no longer needs to be an option. It also removes
the final callers of Domain.bind_interdomain.
Next, introduce a new port_pair type to encapsulate the fact that these two
should be updated together, and replace the previous port and remote_port
fields. This refactoring also changes the Domain.get_port interface (removing
an option) so take the opportunity to name it get_local_port instead.
Also, this fixes a use-after-free risk with Domain.close. Once the evtchn has
been unbound, the same local port number can be reused for a different
purpose, so explicitly invalidate the ports to prevent their accidental misuse
in the future.
This also cleans up some of the debugging, to always print a port pair.
