[libvirt] [PATCH v2] libxl: load on FreeBSD

[Roman Bogorodskiy]

The libxl tries to check if it's running in dom0 by parsing
/proc/xen/capabilities and if that fails it doesn't load.

There's no procfs interface in Xen on FreeBSD, so this check always
fails.

In addition to checking procfs, check if /dev/xen/xenstored, that's enough to
check if we're running in dom0 in FreeBSD case.
