[PATCH RFC 2/4] tools/xenstore: claim resources when running as daemon



Xenstored is absolutely mandatory for a Xen host and it can't be
restarted, so being killed by OOM-killer in case of memory shortage is
to be avoided.

Set /proc/$pid/oom_score_adj (if available) to -500 in order to allow
xenstored to use large amounts of memory without being killed.

In order to support large numbers of domains the limit for open file
descriptors might need to be raised. Each domain needs 2 file
descriptors (one for the event channel and one for the xl per-domain
daemon to connect to xenstored).

Try to raise ulimit for open files to 65536. First the hard limit if
needed, and then the soft limit.
