6b9b732d0e xen-console: add save/restore
Add code to:

 1. Deal with the console page being canonicalized.  During save, the
    console's mfn in the start_info structure is canonicalized to a pfn.
    In order to deal with that, we always use a copy of the pfn and
    indirect off that all the time.  However, we fall back to using the
    mfn if the pfn hasn't been initialized yet.

 2. Restore the console event channel, and rebind it to the existing irq.

0acf10d8fb xen: add raw console write functions for debug
Add a couple of functions which can write directly to the Xen console
for debugging.  This output ends up on the host's dom0 console
(assuming it allows the domain to write there).
