libxl__spawn_spawn is for processes which are going to survive past
the lifetime of the call to libxl.  I think that for bootloaders this
is going to be the case when we do event handling, so probably that's
correct.

NB that you want the version from staging as that has important
changes from Olaf regarding subprocesses.
