This patch implements a (non Xen-API) legacy XML-RPC interface for the
ACM commands and funnels the calls into code introduced by the Xen-API
support for ACM security management. Since some of the functionality has
changed, also the xm applications have changed. In particular the
following old commands have been removed along with some tools the have
become obsolete now:

- loadpolicy    (included in: setpolicy)
- makepolicy    (included in: setpolicy)
- cfgbootpolicy (included in: setpolicy)

and the following commands been introduced:

- setpolicy
- getpolicy
- resetpolicy

All tools have been adapted to work in Xen-API and legacy XML-RPC mode.
Both modes support the same functionality.

An update to the documentation will follow as well as new test cases.

I have run this and the 2nd patch with the xm-test suite on the tip of
the staging tree and they caused no regressions.
