On a system with systemd the xenstore sockets are created via systemd.
Remove the related configuration files in order to be able to decide
at runtime whether the sockets should be created or not. This will
enable Xen to start xenstore either via a daemon or via a stub domain.
As the xenstore domain start program will exit after it has done its
job prepare the same behaviour to be tolerated by systemd for the
xenstore daemon by specifying the appropriate flags in the service
file.
A rerun of autogen.sh is required.

This adds systemd socket activation support for the Ocaml xenstored.
Ocaml lacks systemd library support so we provide our own C helpers
as is done with other functionality lacking on Ocaml.
Active sockets enables oxenstored to be loaded only if required by a system
onto which Xen is installed on. Socket activation is handled by
systemd, once a port for a service which claims a socket is used
systemd will start the required services for it, on demand. For more
details on socket activation refer to Lennart's socket-activation
post regarding this [0].
An important difference with socket activation is that systemd will set
FD_CLOEXEC for us on the socket before giving it to us, we'll sprinkly
the Unix.set_close_on_exec for LSB init next as a separate commit.
Right now this code adds a no-op for this functionality, leaving the
enablement to be done later once systemd is properly hooked into
the build system. The socket activation is ordered in aligment with
the socket activation order passed on to systemd.
