Daniel Veillard 03ede2f69d Fix libxl driver startup 
When you happen to have a libvirtd binary compiled with the
libxenlight driver (say you have installed xen-4.1 libraries)
but not running a xen enabled system, then libvirtd fails to start.

The cause is that libxlStartup() returns -1 when failing to initialize
the library, and this propagates to virStateInitialize() which consider
this a failure. We should only exit libxlStartup with an error code
if something like an allocation error occurs, not if the driver failed
to initialize.

* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: fix libxlStartup() to not return -1
  when failing to initialize the libxenlight library

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
