    tools/dm_restrict: Ask QEMU to chroot
    
    When dm_restrict is enabled, ask QEMU to chroot into an empty directory.
    
    * Create $XEN_RUN_DIR/qemu-root-<domid> (deleting the old one if it's there)
    * Pass the -chroot option to QEMU
    
    Rather than running `rm -rf` on the directory before creating it
    (since there is no library function to do this), simply rmdir the
    directory, relying on the fact that the previous QEMU instance, if
    properly restricted, shouldn't have been able to write anything
    anyway.
