livepatch: Add metadata runtime retrieval mechanism
Extend the livepatch list operation to fetch also payloads' metadata.
This is achieved by extending the sysctl list interface with 2 extra
guest handles:
* metadata - an array of arbitrary size strings
* metadata_len - an array of metadata strings' lengths (uin32_t each)
Payloads' metadata is a string of arbitrary size and does not have an
upper bound limit. It may also vary in size between payloads.
In order to let the userland allocate enough space for the incoming
data add a metadata total size field to the list sysctl operation and
fill it with total size of all payloads' metadata.
Extend the libxc to handle the metadata back-to-back data transfers
as well as metadata length array data transfers.
The xen-livepatch userland tool is extended to always display the
metadata for each received module. The metadata is received with the
following format: key=value\0key=value\0...key=value\0. The format is
modified to the following one: key=value;key=value;...key=value.
The new format allows to easily parse the metadata for a given module
by a machine.
