If available, let libxl handle reaping any children it creates by
specifying libxl_sigchld_owner_libxl_always_selective_reap. This
feature was added to improve subprocess handling in libxl when used
in an application that does not install a SIGCHLD handler like
libvirt
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2014-01/msg01555.html
Prior to this patch, it is possible to hit asserts in libxl when
reaping subprocesses, particularly during simultaneous operations
on multiple domains. With this patch, and the corresponding changes
to libxl, I no longer see the asserts. Note that the libxl changes
will be included in Xen 4.4.0. Previous Xen versions will be
susceptible to hitting the asserts even with this patch applied to
the libvirt libxl driver.

Due to some misunderstanding of requirements libxl places on timer
handling, I introduced the half-brained idea of maintaining a list
of timeouts that the driver could force to expire before freeing a
libxlDomainObjPrivate (and hence libxl_ctx). But testing all
the latest versions of Xen supported by the libxl driver (4.2.3,
4.3.1, 4.4.0 RC3), I see that libxl will handle this just fine and
there is no need to force expiration behind libxl's back. Indeed it
may be harmful to do so.
This patch removes the timer list, allowing libxl to handle cleanup
of its timer registrations.

When libxl registers an FD with the libxl driver, the refcnt of the
associated libxlDomainObjPrivate object is incremented. The refcnt
is decremented when libxl deregisters the FD. But some FDs are only
deregistered when their libxl ctx is freed, which unfortunately is
done in the libxlDomainObjPrivate dispose function. With references
held by the FDs, libxlDomainObjPrivate is never disposed.
I added the ref/unref in FD registration/deregistration when adding
the same in timer registration/deregistration. For timers, this
is a simple approach to ensuring the libxlDomainObjPrivate is not
disposed prior to their expirtation, which libxl guarantees will
occur. It is not needed for FDs, and only causes
libxlDomainObjPrivate to leak.
This patch removes the reference on libxlDomainObjPrivate for FD
registrations, but retains them for timer registrations. Tested on
the latest releases of Xen supported by the libxl driver: 4.2.3,
4.3.1, and 4.4.0 RC3.

there is a segfault in libxl logging in libxl_ctx_free when domain
create fail. because the log output handler vmessage is freed by
xtl_logger_destroy before libxl_ctx_free in virDomainObjListRemove.
move xtl_logger_destroy after libxl_ctx_free could fix this bug.

'const fooPtr' is the same as 'foo * const' (the pointer won't
change, but it's contents can). But in general, if an interface
is trying to be const-correct, it should be using 'const foo *'
(the pointer is to data that can't be changed).
Fix up offenders in src/conf/domain_conf, and their fallout.
Several things to note: virObjectLock() requires a non-const
argument; if this were C++, we could treat the locking field
as 'mutable' and allow locking an otherwise 'const' object, but
that is a more invasive change, so I instead dropped attempts
to be const-correct on domain lookup. virXMLPropString and
friends require a non-const xmlNodePtr - this is because libxml2
is not a const-correct library. We could make the src/util/virxml
wrappers cast away const, but I figured it was easier to not
try to mark xmlNodePtr as const. Finally, virDomainDeviceDefCopy
was a rather hard conversion - it calls virDomainDeviceDefPostParse,
which in turn in the xen driver was actually modifying the domain
outside of the current device being visited. We should not be
adding a device on the first per-device callback, but waiting until
after all per-device callbacks are complete.

Create libxl_domain.[ch] and move all functions operating on
libxlDomainObjPrivate to these files. This will be useful for
future patches that e.g. add job support for libxlDomainObjPrivate.
