xen: separate recipes for hypervisor and tools; switch to git as source
This change changes the names of many packages produced: the
xen-tools recipe now builds packages previous built by the xen
recipe, so the package prefix changes from "xen-" to "xen-tools-".
A temporary bbappend is provided for qemu to ease the transition.
Multiple motivations for recipe separation:
- improves efficiency of incremental build and development
- supports building the hypervisor and tools with different toolchains
and for different architectures
Switch to using a git recipe on the Xen stable branch:
- enables easier tracking of critical XSA security updates applied
upstream by just advancing SRCREV along the branch
Revision has been set to the tip of the stable-4.12 branch, which
has the one XSA-312 patch applied on top of RELEASE-4.12.2.
The recipe refactor externalizes the block tap components, to enable optional
building of blktap in a separate recipe outside xen-tools, needed by OpenXT.
xenstored is made a virtual package to support switching between
alternative implementations (several exist).
Update xen-image-minimal to install the xen-tools package, which
replaces what was previously xen-base.
Determine the flask policy filename, which is Xen-version specific,
using the same method as the Xen build system.
qemu: update PACKAGECONFIG[xen] for xen package renaming: allows builds
to continue correctly in the meantime while openembedded core and poky
are updated.
