Jan Malakhovski da7408e105 xen: Support PCI passthrough.
Previous commit reverted Xen back to 4.0.3 because xend from 4.1.* and newer
hangs for unknown reasons.
The new "xl" toolstack from 4.1.* and unstable works, yet PCI passthrough is not
supported by xl in 4.1.* and is broken in the unstable.

With this patch I was able to passthrough ATI Radeon HD 6950 without 3D
acceleration, though, to both Linux and Windows guests. Which is the best
archived result with Xen PCI passthrough on NixOS after trying out all possible
Xen versions.
Same VGA card works fine if passed through into a guest with KVM (acceleration,
GPGPU, everything works). I should have tried KVM from the start.

Eelco Dolstra cea083bec9 * Set the Python search path for Xen's Python scripts. As an
experiment, do this by patching a line setting sys.path into the
  script, rather than using makeWrapper.
* Xen requires pythonFull because it needs https/ssl support.

Marc Weber f7f938a1d1 big breaking change: renaming lib.getAttr to lib.attrByPath
getAttr was ambiguous. It's also a builtin function

Michael Raskin 3a7ffa5c58 Some of preparation work for adding Xen. Troubles: 1. Xen Dom0 support not complete in mainline. 2. Xen's love to check for headers in /usr/include. To do afterwards: We need to change bootloading setup a bit.
