Subject: [PATCH 1/2] xen: pass kernel initrd to qemu

xen side patch to support xen HVM direct kernel boot:
support 'kernel', 'ramdisk', 'root', 'extra' in HVM config file,
parse config file, pass -kernel, -initrd, -append parameters to qemu.
It's working with seabios and non-stubdom. Rombios and stubdom cases
are currently not supported.

[config example]
kernel="/mnt/vmlinuz-3.0.13-0.27-default"
ramdisk="/mnt/initrd-3.0.13-0.27-default"
root="/dev/hda2"
extra="console=tty0 console=ttyS0"
disk=[ 'file:/mnt/images/bjz_04_sles11_sp2/disk0.raw,hda,w', ]
