Xen supports passing arbitrary arguments to the QEMU device model via the 'extra' member of the public libxl_domain_build_info structure. This patch uses QEMU namespace extensions already in place for the QEMU driver to map arbitrary arguments to the 'extra' member. Only passthrough of arguments is supported. Trying to pass environment variables or capabilities adjustments is not supported and will result in an error.
