xm: Reuse VDI if location is same

In XenAPI mode, when we start a VM by using xm create command, VDIs
are always automatically created for VBDs.  Once we shut down the
VM, then start the VM again, then VDIs are newly created.  As a
result, a vdi.xml file continues to expand.

This patch reuses VDIs if location of the VDIs is same.
