Olaf Hering c8f88810db tools/python: handle libxl__physmap_info.name properly in convert-legacy-stream
The trailing member name[] in libxl__physmap_info is written as a
cstring into the stream. The current code does a sanity check if the
last byte is zero. This attempt fails with python3 because name[-1]
returns a type int. As a result the comparison with byte(\00) fails:

  File "/usr/lib/xen/bin/convert-legacy-stream", line 347, in read_libxl_toolstack
    raise StreamError("physmap name not NUL terminated")
  StreamError: physmap name not NUL terminated

To handle both python variants, cast to bytearray().
