    libs/guest: Move the guest ABI check earlier into xc_dom_parse_image()
    
    Xen may not support 32-bit PV guest for a number of reasons (lack of
    CONFIG_PV32, explicit pv=no-32 command line argument, or implicitly
    due to CET being enabled) and advertises this to the toolstack via the
    absence of xen-3.0-x86_32p ABI.
    
    Currently, when trying to boot a 32-bit PV guest, the ABI check is too
    late and the build explodes in the following manner yielding an
    unhelpful error message:
    
      xc: error: panic: xg_dom_boot.c:121: xc_dom_boot_mem_init: can't allocate 
low memory for domain: Out of memory
      libxl: error: libxl_dom.c:586:libxl__build_dom: xc_dom_boot_mem_init 
failed: Operation not supported
      libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1573:domcreate_rebuild_done: Domain 1:cannot 
(re-)build domain: -3
      libxl: error: libxl_domain.c:1182:libxl__destroy_domid: Domain 
1:Non-existant domain
      libxl: error: libxl_domain.c:1136:domain_destroy_callback: Domain 
1:Unable to destroy guest
      libxl: error: libxl_domain.c:1063:domain_destroy_cb: Domain 1:Destruction 
of domain failed
    
    Move the ABI check earlier into xc_dom_parse_image() along with other
    ELF-note feature checks.  With this adjustment, it now looks like
    this:
    
      xc: error: panic: xg_dom_boot.c:88: xc_dom_compat_check: guest type 
xen-3.0-x86_32p not supported by xen kernel, sorry: Invalid kernel
      libxl: error: libxl_dom.c:571:libxl__build_dom: xc_dom_parse_image failed
      domainbuilder: detail: xc_dom_release: called
      libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1573:domcreate_rebuild_done: Domain 
11:cannot (re-)build domain: -3
      libxl: error: libxl_domain.c:1182:libxl__destroy_domid: Domain 
11:Non-existant domain
      libxl: error: libxl_domain.c:1136:domain_destroy_callback: Domain 
11:Unable to destroy guest
      libxl: error: libxl_domain.c:1063:domain_destroy_cb: Domain 
11:Destruction of domain failed
