    tools/libs/store: drop read-only functionality
    
    Today it is possible to open the connection in read-only mode via
    xs_daemon_open_readonly(). This is working only with Xenstore running
    as a daemon in the same domain as the user. Additionally it doesn't
    add any security as accessing the socket used for that functionality
    requires the same privileges as the socket used for full Xenstore
    access.
    
    So just drop the read-only semantics in all cases, leaving the
    interface existing only for compatibility reasons. This in turn
    requires to just ignore the XS_OPEN_READONLY flag.
