Boot from volume for Xen

Browse Source 
Implements bp xenapi-boot-from-volume

Ensure boot from volume works for XenAPI (tested using XenServer).
1. Add strip_prefix to block_device to make the command mountpoint
agnostic.
2. Pass block device and delete on terminate information to driver
layer.
3. Add ability to recognize and boot from the specified nova volume.
