Don't copy sexpr node value that is an empty string
Xen4.1 initializes some unspecified sexpr config items to an empty string, unlike previous Xen versions that would leave the item unset. E.g. the kernel item for an HVM guest (non-direct kernel boot): Xen4.0 and earlier ... (image (hvm (kernel ) ... Xen4.1 ... (image (hvm (kernel '') ... The empty string for kernel causes some grief in subsequent parsing where existence of specified kernel is checked, e.g. if (!def->os.kernel) ... This patch solves the problem in sexpr_node_copy() by not copying a node containing an empty string.
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.

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
