    docs: xl.cfg: permissive option is not PV only.
    
    Since XSA-131 qemu-xen has defaulted to non-permissive mode and the
    option was extended to cover that case in 015a373351e5 "tools: libxl:
    allow permissive qemu-upstream pci passthrough".
    
    Since I was rewrapping to adjust the text anyway I've split the safety
    warning into a separate paragraph to make it more obvious.

    The text here in Xen 4.2 is quite different to that in 4.3 resulting
    in a big conflict.  I resolved it by turning this commit into one
    which simply removes the annotation `(PV only)'.
