libxl: suppress device assignment to HVM guest when there is no IOMMU This in effect copies similar logic from xend: While there's no way to check whether a device is assigned to a particular guest, XEN_DOMCTL_test_assign_device at least allows checking whether an IOMMU is there and whether a device has been assign to _some_ guest. For the time being, this should be enough to cover for the missing error checking/recovery in other parts of libxl's device assignment paths. There remains a (functionality-, but not security-related) race in that the iommu should be set up earlier, but this is too risky a change for this stage of the 4.3 release. This is a security issue, XSA-61.
