[PATCH v1 0/4] tools/ocaml/libs/xc: domid control at domain creation time



The xl toolstack allows some control over the domid at VM creation time,
allow xenopsd similar control by exposing the appropriate domid field in the 
OCaml xenctrl bindings.
A new API function is introduced to preserve backwards compatibility without 
merge ordering
requirements between the Xen and xenopsd patches: Xen can merge the patch and 
xenopsd will keep
building with the old function, and a new version of xenopsd will start using 
the new function.

I've also included some build system fixes to allow me to test the build
in an upstream build environment:
```
cd automation/build
podman build -t registry.gitlab.com/xen-project/xen/ubuntu:focal -f 
ubuntu/focal.dockerfile ubuntu
DOCKER_CMD=podman CONTAINER_NO_PULL=1 
CONTAINER=registry.gitlab.com/xen-project/xen/ubuntu:focal 
automation/scripts/containerize make build-tools-oxenstored
```

It'd be good if someone could test whether containerize still works on 
non-SELinux systems now, or
whether we need more detection logic in the script.

This works around bugs in the OCaml makefiles that end up in "inconsistent 
assumptions" by doing a
'make clean' before building the OCaml files every time. This is inefficient, 
but works.
Long term it would be beneficial to switch to Dune as build system,
which can do correct incremental builds with minimal configuration.
I'll send a separate patch series for that.
