    Introduce a Xen xl parser
    
    This parser allows for users to convert the new xl disk format and
    spice graphics config to libvirt xml format and vice versa. Regarding
    the spice graphics config, the code is pretty much straight forward.
    For the disk {formating, parsing}, this parser takes care of the new
    xl format which include positional parameters and key/value parameters.
    In xl format disk config a <diskspec> consists of parameters separated by
    commas. If the parameters do not contain an '=' they are automatically
    assigned to certain options following the order below
    
       target, format, vdev, access
    
    The above are the only mandatory parameters in the <diskspec> but there
    are many more disk config options. These options can be specified as
    key=value pairs. This takes care of the rest of the options such as
    
      devtype, backend, backendtype, script, direct-io-safe,
    
    The positional paramters can also be specified in key/value form
    for example
    
        /dev/vg/guest-volume,,hda
        /dev/vg/guest-volume,raw,hda,rw
        format=raw, vdev=hda, access=rw, target=/dev/vg/guest-volume
    
    are interpleted to one config.
    
    In xm format, the above diskspec would be written as
    
    phy:/dev/vg/guest-volume,hda,w
    
    The disk parser is based on the same parser used successfully by
    the Xen project for several years now.  Ian Jackson authored the
    scanner, which is used by this commit with mimimal changes.  Only
    the PREFIX option is changed, to produce function and file names
    more consistent with libvirt's convention.
