blktap2: fix save/restore/migration
blktap2 devices use a regular 'phy' vbd blkback backend, causing
Blktap2Controller to trample the devices' parameters. This causes problems with
save/restore and managed domains, among other things. This patch modifies
Blktap2Controller to store both the vbd and tap2 parameters in xenstore, and
stops it from trampling the device's config on device creation.
* store blktap2 parameters in xenstore
* restore blktap2 device config to original state once the underlying vbd
device is created (this fixes managed domains)
* use blktap2 parameters rather than vbd parameters when building blktap2
device configurations
* remove blktap2 specific code from XendConfig
