[PATCH v5 14/21] libxl: require qemu in dom0 even if stubdomain is in use



From: Marek Marczykowski-Górecki <marmarek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Until xenconsoled learns how to handle multiple consoles, this is needed
for save/restore support (qemu state is transferred over secondary
consoles).
Additionally, Linux-based stubdomain waits for all the backends to
initialize during boot. Lack of some console backends results in
stubdomain startup timeout.

This is a temporary patch until xenconsoled will be improved.
