[Bug 1396068] Re: [Xen/xl] dom0 needs to run qemu for qcow access

[Stefan Bader]

SRU justification:

Impact: Without starting a QEMU instance for dom0 it is not possible to
use advanced disk image types for PV guests because pygrub then cannot
peek into them to pick kernel images to start. However this setup is the
default for nova-xen (openstack).

Fix: Picking up changes from Debian (and now also in Vivid already) to
the init script which starts and stops QEMU for dom0.

Testcase: After package upgrade and subsequent reboots there is a qemu-
system-i386 process attached to dom0.
