Once again, I have not executed the code in this series!

These three are intended to be bugfixes to sort out
the deadlock problem that Roger Pau Monne reported:
 01/15 libxl: ao: allow immediate completion
 02/15 libxl: fix hang due to libxl__initiate_device_remove

These are other bugfixes:
 03/15 libxl: Fix eventloop_iteration over-locking
 04/15 libxl: Fix leak of ctx->lock
 05/15 libxl: abolish libxl_ctx_postfork
 06/15 tools: Correct PTHREAD options in config/StdGNU.mk
 07/15 libxl: Use PTHREAD_CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS
 08/15 libxl: Crash (more sensibly) on malloc failure

These are handy new bits for internal libxl users:
 09/15 libxl: Make libxl__zalloc et al tolerate a NULL gc
 10/15 libxl: Introduce some convenience macros
 11/15 libxl: Protect fds with CLOEXEC even with forking threads
 12/15 libxl: libxl_event.c:beforepoll_internal, REQUIRE_FDS
 14/15 libxl: Provide libxl_string_list_length
 15/15 libxl: Introduce libxl__sendmsg_fds and libxl__recvmsg_fds

This is the new child-handling machinery:
 13/15 libxl: event API: new facilities for waiting for subprocesses

There are not any users for much of this code in this series.  I have
a half-written rework of libxl_bootloader.c to make it event-driven,
but it's not suitable for review at this stage.  It doesn't even
compile.
