    tools: libxl/xl: allow to get/set Credit1's vcpu_migration_delay
    
    Make it possible to get and set a (Credit1) scheduler's
    vCPU migration delay via the SCHEDOP sysctl, from both
    libxl and xl (no change needed in libxc).

+Migration delay specifies for how long a vCPU, after it stopped running should
+be considered "cache-hot". Basically, if less than DELAY us passed since when
+the vCPU was executing on a CPU, it is likely that most of the vCPU's working
+set is still in the CPU's cache, and therefore the vCPU is not migrated.
+
+Default is 0. Maximum is 100 ms. This can be effective at preventing vCPUs
+to bounce among CPUs too quickly, but, at the same time, the scheduler stops
+being fully work-conserving.
