Currently, the number of SPIs allocated to the domain is only configurable for Dom0less DomUs. Xen domains are supposed to be platform agnostics and therefore the numbers of SPIs for libxl guests should not be based on the hardware. Introduce a new xl config entry for Arm to provide a method for user to decide the number of SPIs. This would help to avoid bumping the `config->arch.nr_spis` in libxl everytime there is a new platform with increased SPI numbers. Update the doc and the golang bindings accordingly.

xenlight
About
The xenlight package provides Go bindings to Xen's libxl C library via cgo. The package is currently in an unstable "experimental" state. This means the package is ready for initial use and evaluation, but is not yet fully functional. Namely, only a subset of libxl's API is implemented, and breaking changes may occur in future package versions.
Much of the package is generated using the libxl IDL. Changes to the
generated code can be made by modifying tools/golang/xenlight/gengotypes.py
in the xen.git tree.
Getting Started
import (
"xenbits.xenproject.org/git-http/xen.git/tools/golang/xenlight"
)
The module is not yet tagged independently of xen.git; if you don’t specify the version, you’ll get the most recent development version, which is probably not what you want. A better option would be to specify a Xen release tag; for instance:
go get xenbits.xenproject.org/git-http/xen.git/tools/golang/xenlight@RELEASE-4.14.0.
