871f231ea0 docs: point to GitLab as the primary git hosting
We still point to git repositories hosted on libvirt.org in various
places. Replace the links to their gitlab.com equivalents.

Note that GitLab is trying to be smart here and
  https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt
redirects to
  https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt.git
when doing a 'git clone' and vice-versa when visiting from the
browser, so I only kept the .git suffix in places that explicitly
mentioned 'git clone'.

fadbaa2375 conf: add xen hypervisor feature 'passthrough'
'passthrough' is Xen-Specific guest configuration option new to Xen 4.13
that enables IOMMU mappings for a guest and hence whether it supports PCI
passthrough. The default is disabled. See the xl.cfg(5) man page and
xen.git commit babde47a3fe for more details.

The default state of disabled prevents hotlugging PCI devices. However,
if the guest configuration contains a PCI passthrough device at time of
creation, libxl will automatically enable 'passthrough' and subsequent
hotplugging of PCI devices will also be possible. It is not possible to
unconditionally enable 'passthrough' since it would introduce a migration
incompatibility due to guest ABI change. Instead, introduce another Xen
hypervisor feature that can be used to enable guest PCI passthrough

  <features>
    <xen>
      <passthrough state='on'/>
    </xen>
  </features>

To allow finer control over how IOMMU maps to guest P2M table, the
passthrough element also supports a 'mode' attribute with values
restricted to snyc_pt and share_pt, similar to xl.cfg(5) 'passthrough'
setting .

b7d6648d43 conf: add xen specific feature: e820_host
e820_host is a Xen-specific option, only available for PV domains, that

is enabled with a new Xen hypervisor feature, e.g.

  <features>
    <xen>
      <e820_host state='on'/>

e820_host is required when using PCI passthrough and is generally
considered safe for any PV kernel. e820_host is silently ignored if set
in HVM domain configuration. See xl.cfg(5) man page in the Xen
documentation for more details.
