    tools/ocaml/xenstored: ignore transaction id for [un]watch
    
    Instead of ignoring the transaction id for XS_WATCH and XS_UNWATCH
    commands as it is documented in docs/misc/xenstore.txt, it is tested
    for validity today.
    
    Really ignore the transaction id for XS_WATCH and XS_UNWATCH.
    
    This is part of XSA-115.
