libxl: Allow network driver domains when run_hotplug_scritps is set
As of commit 05bfd984dfe7014f1f5ea1133608b9bab589c120, hotplug scripts are not run if backend_domid != LIBXL_TOOSTACK_DOMID; so there is no reason to restrict this for network driver domains any more. This is a candidate for backporting to 4.3.
