xen: add the Xenbus sysfs and virtual device hotplug driver

This communicates with the machine control software via a registry
residing in a controlling virtual machine. This allows dynamic
creation, destruction and modification of virtual device
configurations (network devices, block devices and CPUS, to name some
examples).

[ Greg, would you mind giving this a review?  Thanks -J ]
