...that maintains compatibility with existing Xen toolstacks.
Xen toolstacks instantiate PV backends by simply writing information into
xenstore and expecting a backend implementation to be watching for this.
This patch adds a new 'xen-backend' module to allow individual XenDevice
implementations to register create and destroy functions. The creator
will be called when a tool-stack instantiates a new backend in this way,
and the destructor will then be called after the resulting XenDevice
object is unrealized.
To support this it is also necessary to add new watchers into the XenBus
implementation to handle enumeration of new backends and also destruction
of XenDevice-s when the toolstack sets the backend 'online' key to 0.
NOTE: This patch only adds the framework. A subsequent patch will add a
creator function for xen-block devices.

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.

This patch adds the basic boilerplate for a 'XenBus' object that will act
as a parent to 'XenDevice' PV backends.
A new 'XenBridge' object is also added to connect XenBus to the system bus.
The XenBus object is instantiated by a new xen_bus_init() function called
from the same sites as the legacy xen_be_init() function.
Subsequent patches will flesh-out the functionality of these objects.

...and xen_backend.h to xen-legacy-backend.h
Rather than attempting to convert the existing backend infrastructure to
be QOM compliant (which would be hard to do in an incremental fashion),
subsequent patches will introduce a completely new framework for Xen PV
backends. Hence it is necessary to re-name parts of existing code to avoid
name clashes. The re-named 'legacy' infrastructure will be removed once all
backends have been ported to the new framework.
This patch is purely cosmetic. No functional change.

Legacy PCI device assignment has been removed from Linux in 4.12,
and had been deprecated 2 years ago there. We can remove it from
QEMU as well.
The ROM loading code was shared with Xen PCI passthrough, so move
it to hw/xen.

Change Makefile.objs to use CONFIG_XEN instead of CONFIG_XEN_BACKEND, so
that the Xen backends are only built for targets that support Xen.
Set CONFIG_XEN in the toplevel Makefile to ensure that files that are
built only once pick up Xen support properly.
