Rename XENFEAT_ring0_kernel to slightly more generic
XENFEAT_supervisor_mode_kernel.
Add comments in public header version.h to explain what all the different
feature flags mean. Add a new flag XENFEAT_pae_pgdir_above_4gb to inform the
guest
that its PAE page directories do not need to conform to the usual hardware
restriction.
