Xen: Ignore the retry argument in stop instance

Commit 4ad4511 changed the KVM hypervisor to send multiple shutdown
requests to the monitor, but it didn't change this for the Xen
hypervisor. We simply remove the return on retry model, since we do want
to send multiple shutdown signals for both Xen and KVM (even if the...

Hypervisors: Add retry= to StopInstance

Currently some hypervisors need the stop operations to be retried more
than once, while other ones only do it in one pass. With this change
we'll handle retries outside the hypervisor code, but telling whether
this is the first try or not....

Implement the KERNEL_PATH parameter for xen-hvm

For the xen-hvm hypervisor, the KERNEL_PATH parameter is needed but

Move HVM's device_model to a hypervisor parameter

This moves yet another hardcoded value to a hypervisor parameter. I
removed the 64/32 difference as it doesn't seem valid to me - it's more
of a local site config rather than arch config.

This (somewhat big) patch adds support for remotely rebooting the nodes
