One less qemu-specific macro. It also helps to make some headers/units
only depend on glib, and thus moved in standalone projects eventually.

A Xen PV frontend communicates its state to the PV backend by writing to
the 'state' key in the frontend area in xenstore. It is therefore
necessary for a XenDevice implementation to be notified whenever the
value of this key changes.
This patch adds code to do this as follows:
- an 'fd handler' is registered on the libxenstore handle which will be
triggered whenever a 'watch' event occurs
- primitives are added to xen-bus-helper to add or remove watch events
- a list of Notifier objects is added to XenBus to provide a mechanism
to call the appropriate 'watch handler' when its associated event
occurs
The xen-block implementation is extended with a 'frontend_changed' method,
which calls as-yet stub 'connect' and 'disconnect' functions when the
relevant frontend state transitions occur. A subsequent patch will supply
a full implementation for these functions.

This patch adds a new source module, xen-bus-helper.c, which builds on
basic libxenstore primitives to provide functions to create (setting
permissions appropriately) and destroy xenstore areas, and functions to
'printf' and 'scanf' nodes therein. The main xen-bus code then uses
these primitives [1] to initialize and destroy the frontend and backend
areas for a XenDevice during realize and unrealize respectively.
The 'xen-block' implementation is extended with a 'get_name' method that
returns the VBD number. This number is required to 'name' the xenstore
areas.
NOTE: An exit handler is also added to make sure the xenstore areas are
cleaned up if QEMU terminates without devices being unrealized.
[1] The 'scanf' functions are actually not yet needed, but they will be
needed by code delivered in subsequent patches.
