[Xen-changelog] [xen master] xl: Add "seize" option to PCI devices

    xl: Add "seize" option to PCI devices
    
    The "seize" option tells the toolstack to attempt to automatically
    unbind devices and re-bind them to the pciback driver.  This should
    make creating VMs that habitually use pass-through (such as driver domain
    VMs and gaming VMs) easier to use and manage.
    
    [Whitespace error fixed by iwj.]
