Paul Durrant 85e3b08eb7 docs: Introduce xenstore paths for PV control features
XenServer already makes use of ~/control/feature-suspend being written
to advertise guest capability of responding to 'suspend' when written to
~/control/shutdown and, since they are derived from XenServer drivers,
the Xen Project Windows PV drivers attempt to write this value. The write
currently fails for libxl provisioned VMs because ~/control is read-only
to the guest (only ~/control/shutdown is writable, for ackowledgement
purposes).

This patch documents feature-suspend and also a set of similar control
feature flags, so that that they may be added to libxl provisioned
guests by subsequent patches:

feature-poweroff: PV drivers/agent can shut down the guest
feature-reboot: PV drivers/agent can reboot the guest
feature-s3: PV drivers/agent can trigger guest sleep (HVM only)
feature-s4: PV drivers/agent can trigger guest hibernate (HVM only)

The patch (bacause it adds features relating to S3 and S4 power states)
also clarifies that the initial set of platform properties mentioned are
booleans, and updates the specifier accordingly.

xen-bugtool
===========

The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output,
details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the
build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs.

The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug
must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or
it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving.

The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all
worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly
exclude those logs from the archive.

xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
