7cabbdb70df64fc7b0ed05f3e6aa4e1990eadc77 hw/xen: Watches on XenStore transactions
Firing watches on the nodes that still exist is relatively easy; just
walk the tree and look at the nodes with refcount of one.
Firing watches on *deleted* nodes is more fun. We add 'modified_in_tx'
and 'deleted_in_tx' flags to each node. Nodes with those flags cannot
be shared, as they will always be unique to the transaction in which
they were created.
When xs_node_walk would need to *create* a node as scaffolding and it
encounters a deleted_in_tx node, it can resurrect it simply by clearing
its deleted_in_tx flag. If that node originally had any *data*, they're
gone, and the modified_in_tx flag will have been set when it was first
deleted.
We then attempt to send appropriate watches when the transaction is
committed, properly delete the deleted_in_tx nodes, and remove the
modified_in_tx flag from the others.
