[libvirt] [PATCH 1/4] libxl: implement NUMA capabilities reporting

Starting from Xen 4.2, libxl has all the bits and pieces are in
place for retrieving an adequate amount of information about the
host NUMA topology. It is therefore possible, after a bit of
shuffling, to arrange those information in the way libvirt wants
to present them to the outside world.

Therefore, with this patch, the <topology> section of the host
capabilities is properly populated, when running on Xen, so that
we can figure out whether or not we're running on a NUMA host,
and what its characteristics are.
