Add vendor_device parameter for HVM guests
The parameter determines which, if any, xen-pvdevice is specified on the
QEMU command line. The default value is 'none' which means no argument will
be passed. A value of 'xenserver' specifies a xen-pvdevice with device-id
0xc000 (the initial value in the xenserver namespace - see
docs/misc/pci-device-reservations.txt).
