[Xen-devel] xm support for abbreviated commands

[Tom Wilkie <tw275@xxxxxxxxx>]

This patch adds support for abbreviated commands to xm.

Eg xm li -> xm list, for all those people where typing 'st' will kill them

It makes sure the abbreviated command is not ambiguous, and at least 2 
letters long.
