[PATCH v8 09/16] tools/[lib]xl: Add vmtrace_buf_size parameter

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Michał Leszczyński <michal.leszczynski@xxxxxxx>

Allow to specify the size of per-vCPU trace buffer upon
domain creation. This is zero by default (meaning: not enabled).

v8:
 * Rebase over vmtrace_size change.
v7:
 * Use the name 'vmtrace' consistently.
