    libxl: Do not generate short block in libxl__datacopier_prefixdata
    
    libxl__datacopier_prefixdata would prepend a deliberately short block
    (not just a half-full one, but one with a short buffer) to the
    dc->bufs queue.  However, this is wrong because datacopier_readable
    will find it and try to continue to fill it up.
    
    Instead, allocate a full-sized buffer.
