[Xen-devel] [livepatch: independ. modules 3/3] python: Add XC binding for Xen build ID

[Pawel Wieczorkiewicz <wipawel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Extend the list of xc() object methods with additional one to display
Xen's buildid. The implementation follows the libxl implementation
(e.g. max buildid size assumption being XC_PAGE_SIZE).
