Andrew Cooper 8b3c06a3e5 tools/ocaml/xenctrl: OCaml 5 support, fix use-after-free
The binding for xc_interface_close() free the underlying handle while leaving
the Ocaml object still in scope and usable.  This would make it easy to suffer
a use-after-free, if it weren't for the fact that the typical usage is as a
singleton that lives for the lifetime of the program.

Ocaml 5 no longer permits storing a naked C pointer in an Ocaml value.

Therefore, use a Custom block.  This allows us to use the finaliser callback
to call xc_interface_close(), if the Ocaml object goes out of scope.
