Andrii Sultanov db29bf7a77 oxenstored: Reset the watches trie on domain reconnect
oxenstored maintains two datastructures about watches; one global trie, and
one hashtable tracked per domain.  Both need keeping in sync, and right now
the global trie is not emptied when a xenbus reconnect is requested.

This is basically the same bug as XSA-330, commit 491a077ed4
("tools/ocaml/xenstored: delete watch from trie too when resetting watches"),
just tickled via another path.

Arrange for both Process.do_reset_watches() and Process.do_reconnect() to
share a common codepath for the resetting of watches and transactions.
Notably, this means that the latter now calls Connections.del_watches() which
clears the global trie too.

Connections.del_watches() already calls Connection.del_watches() so remove the
re-clearing of the state from Connection.do_reconnect().

Move History.trim() into reset_watches_and_transactions() so it's on the
common path, and place it after removing the transactions rather than before.

This is part of XSA-512 / CVE-2026-79604.
