[PATCH v4 1/3] libxl: set nestedhvm for mode host-passthrough

[Wim Ten Have <wim.ten.have@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Wim ten Have <wim.ten.have@xxxxxxxxxx>

Xen feature nestedhvm is the option on Xen 4.4+ which enables
nested virtualization when mode host-passthrough is applied.

nested HVM is enabled by adding below on the target domain;
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'/>

Virtualization on target domain can be disabled by specifying
such under feature policy rule on target name;

[On Intel (VT-x) architecture]
<feature policy='disable' name='vmx'/>

or:

[On AMD (AMD-V) architecture]
<feature policy='disable' name='svm'/>
