This patch changes the XML schema of the ACM policy to require a
version and that every conflict set have a name. Every VM label must
have one Chinese Wall Type and every resource label one Simple Type
Enforcement Type. As a consequence of this some example policies
needed to be changed. Also not offering that many configuration
options for compiling xen anymore to make things simpler.

Subsequent patches will follow in the coming weeks that will enable
Xen ACM to control assignment of resources (e.g., block devices and
networking) to virtual machines based on resource labels and the
active security policy.

creation/generation of the XML security policy files for the Xen ACM
security architecture. It is a python- based, web-based tool named
xensec_gen that allows users to create or modify XML policy files
through a browser. The resulting XML policy files can then be copied
or moved to the appropriate location in the /etc/xen/acm-security
directory structure in order to be translated into binary and used
within the Xen system.
