tools: Introduce "allocate-only" page type for migration
To detect presence of superpages on the receiver side, we need to have strings of sequential pfns sent across on the first iteration through the memory. However, as we go through the memory, more and more of it will be marked dirty, making it wasteful to send those pages. This patch introduces a new PFINFO type, "XALLOC". Like PFINFO_XTAB, it indicates that there is no corresponding page present in the subsquent page buffer. However, unlike PFINFO_XTAB, it contains a pfn which should be allocated. This new type is only used for migration; but it's placed in xen/public/domctl.h so that the value isn't reused.
