What is xengntshr.pc actually for?

(I am forward porting the XenServer patch queue, and rpm informs me that
there is no real libxengntshr)

All gntshr functionality is inside gnttab, and only a single shared
object exists.

In fact, I can't see why we have any *_libxengntshr infrastructure at
all (c/s a71ad0feada which introduced it originally doesn't help; they
weren't two libraries before either...).

The two uses of *_libxengntshr infrastructure are libxc and libvchan,
both of which reference *_libxengnttab immediately before.
