xen: fix race in refresh of config cache

The xenXMConfigCacheRefresh method scans /etc/xen and loads
all config files it finds. It then scans its internal hash
table and purges any (previously) loaded config files whose
refresh timestamp does not match the timestamp recorded at
the start of xenXMConfigCacheRefresh(). There is unfortunately
a subtle flaw in this, because if loading the config files
takes longer than 1 second, some of the config files will
have a refresh timestamp that is 1 or more seconds different
(newer) than is checked for. So we immediately purge a bunch
of valid config files we just loaded.

To avoid this flaw, we must pass the timestamp we record at
the start of xenXMConfigCacheRefresh() into the
xenXMConfigCacheAddFile() method, instead of letting the
latter call time(NULL) again.
