[PATCH 2/3] livepatch: add a dummy hypercall for testing purposes



Introduce a dummy XEN_SYSCTL_LIVEPATCH_TEST hypercall to be used in order to
test livepatch functionality.  The hypercall fills a value in the passed
structure, which is returned to the caller.

The xen-livepatch utility is expanded to allow calling that hypercall, and
printing the returned value on stdout.

Finally, add dummy patch that changes the returned value of the hypercall from
1 to 2.  Such patch can be used with livepatch-build-tools in order to generate
a livepatch payload, that when applied to the hypervisor change the printed
value of `xen-livepatch test`.

The whole logic is very simple now.  I think it's enough to have a skeleton we
can later expand.

Unsure whether we should do some kind of test (with `patch -F0`) that the patch
still applies cleanly as part of Xen build.
