This patch will allow the execution of domains in full shadow-translate mode. It adds a new builder, "linuxtranslate", which will build the domain assuming a fully translated domU (pfns starting at 0 and going up incrementally).

To use it:
1) enable CONFIG_XEN_SHADOW_MODE and CONFIG_XEN_SHADOW_TRANSLATE_MODE in the domU build config
 2) in the xen config file, add the following line
   build="linuxtranslate"

Note that at present, shadow translate mode does not yet support grant tables, so for now this will only work with a ramdisk.

Comments:
 - the config option text should note that this is experimental.
 - the '2nd try' of the ReactOS patch factored out the ELF loading code
   to a different file (xc_elf_load.c); this builder should use that file
   rather than duplicating the code.
