When VM is started by root, config file is created with root owner and
user has no write access to it. As the directory is user-writable,
delete the file first.

Do not load qubes.xml again, it can cause race conditions between two
instances of the same VM objects.
Especially when VM is starting ProxyVM to which it is connected,
firewall rules could not be loaded.
Long time ago passio=True was used to replace current process with
qrexec-client directly (qvm-run --pass-io was the called), but this
behaviour is not used anymore (qvm-run was the only user). And this
option was left untouched, with misleading name - one would assume that
using passio=False should disallow any I/O, but this isn't the case.
Especially qvm-sync-clock is calling clockvm.run('...', wait=True),
default value for passio=False. This causes to output data from
untrusted VM, without sanitising terminal sequences, which can be fatal.
This patch changes passio semantic to actually do what it means - when
set to True - VM process will be able to interact with
stdin/stdout/stderr. But when set to False, all those FDs will be
connected to /dev/null.

- script redesign,
- fixed VT-d, VT-x detection,
- Support File generation is optional,
- the results are kept in dom0 by default,
- version and usage info added.
(cherry picked from commit f5845b2df1db19da37f02ace24f29a82660c39ff)
Otherwise deadlock could happen - the script will try to get read lock
on qubes.xml, while the calling tool can already hold the lock. If that
was write lock (which is in case of qfile-daemon-dvm), the deadlock
occurs.
This is the only place where ID was used - all other places uses name.
Linux qrexec-client accepts both ID and name, but sticking to one option
will simplify things (especially Windows qrexec-client/daemon).
Currently getting Stubdom XID is (the last one?) read directly from
Xenstore as there is no libvirt function for it.
This means that even if HVM is running it can have not connection to
Xenstore. For now give -1 in such situation.
