[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 05/22] xl: introduce a domain type option

[Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Introduce a new type option to xl configuration files in order to
specify the domain type. This supersedes the current builder option.

The new option is documented in the xl.cfg man page, and the previous
builder option is marked as deprecated.

Changes since v2:
 - Left shift error message.
 - Detect wrong combination of 'builder' and 'type' options.
 - Do not complain if both type and builder and set to the same value.
 - Drop Wei's Ack (patch changed substantially).
