I've sent another one with a "v3" to help make it clear what's going on...

libxl: Make an internal function explicitly check existence of expected paths

libxl__device_disk_from_xs_be() was failing without error for some
missing xenstore nodes in a backend, while assuming (without checking)
that other nodes were valid, causing a crash when another internal
error wrote these nodes in the wrong place.

Make this function consistent by:
* Checking the existence of all nodes before using
* Choosing a default only when the node is not written in device_disk_add()
* Failing with log msg if any node written by device_disk_add() is not present
* Returning an error on failure
* Disposing of the structure before returning using libxl_device_disk_displose()

Also make the callers of the function pay attention to the error and
behave appropriately.  In the case of libxl__append_disk_list_of_type(),
this means only incrementing *ndisks as the disk structures are
successfully initialized.

v3:
  * Make a failure path in libxl__device_disk_from_be() to free allocations
    from half-initialized disks
  * Modify libxl__append_disk_list_of_type to only update *ndisks as they are
    completed.  This will allow the only caller (libxl_device_disk_list()) to
    clean up the completed disks properly on an error.
v2:
  * Remove "Internal error", as the failure will most likely look internal
  * Use LOG(ERROR...) macros for incrased prettiness
