[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 2/8] go/xenlight: Fix CpuidPoliclyList conversion

[George Dunlap <george.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Empty Go strings should be converted to `nil` libxl_cpuid_policy_list;
otherwise libxl_cpuid_parse_config gets confused.

Also, libxl_cpuid_policy_list returns a weird error, not a "normal"
libxl error; if it returns one of these non-standard errors, convert
it to ErrorInval.

Finally, make the fromC() method take a pointer, and set the value of
CpuidPolicyList such that it will generate a valid CpuidPolicyList in
response.

v2:
- Port over toC() function signature change
- Have fromC set the string to ""
