* adds a C-based security policy translation tool to Xen (secpol_xml2bin) and removes the current Java security policy translator (Java dependencies). The C-based tool integrates into the Xen source tree build and install (using gnome libxml2 for XML parsing). See install.txt. * introduces security labels and related tools. Users can now use semantic-rich label names to put security-tags on domains. See example.txt, policy.txt. * moves the security configuration (currently ACM_USE_SECURITY_POLICY) from xen/Rules.mk into a separate top-level Security.mk file (it is needed by the tools/security and xen/acm). Both xen/acm and tools/security are built during the Xen build process only if ACM_USE_SECURITY_POLICY is not ACM_NULL_POLICY (which is the default setting).
