Applied, thanks Stefan, and sorry about the delay.

I made a number of patches on top of this, to fix up minor inconsistencies
between your doc patch and your code patch (type renamed to driver was the
only one, IIRC), some code fixes (integers in the model are int64_t in the C
bindings), and I matched your stuff up with some of the changes in our general
approach, such as the change of the treatment of the dynamic sets that
represent the links between objects.

I much prefer the treatment of vTPMs as devices, rather than fields on VM --
it's a better model all round, so thanks for that.

Ewan.
