[Xen-devel] [PATCH] fix list_domain_details: check config data length=0

[Chunyan Liu <cyliu@xxxxxxxx>]

If domain is created through virsh, then in xl, one could see it
with 'xl list', but with 'xl list --long domU', it reports:
"Domain name must be specified."
The reason is xl config data does not exist but it still tries
to parse_config_data in current code.

Improve list_domain_details:
If len of config data is 0, just pass, do not go forward to
parse_config_data, otherwise, it will meet error like
"Domain name not specified" and exit. This error is not expected,
since if code enters list_domain_details, domain name validness
is already checked and domain does exist.

Length of config data is 0 may means: config data does not exist due
to some reason, like: domain is created by libvirt, or in destroying
domain process config data is cleared but domain fails to clean up.
No matter in which case, list_domain_details could just show empty
info, but not error like "Domain name not specified".
