At least Xen supports backend drivers in another domain (aka "driver
domain"). This patch introduces XML config option for such setting as
'domain' element with 'name' attribute. Verification its content is left
for the driver.
In the future some option will be needed for USB devices (hostdev
objects), but for now libxl doesn't have support for PVUSB.
Changes in v2:
- describe in docs/formatdomain.html.in
- enforce empty domain tag (only 'name' attribute allowed)
