[PATCH 02/12] golang/xenlight: fix StringList toC conversion

[Nick Rosbrook <rosbrookn@gmail.com>]

The current implementation of StringList.toC does not correctly account
for how libxl_string_list is expected to be laid out in C, which is clear
when one looks at libxl_string_list_length in libxl.c. In particular,
StringList.toC does not account for the extra memory that should be
allocated for the "sentinel" entry. And, when using the "slice trick" to
create a slice that can address C memory, the unsafe.Pointer conversion
should be on a C.libxl_string_list, not *C.libxl_string_list.

Fix these problems by (1) allocating an extra slot in the slice used to
address the C memory, and explicity set the last entry to nil so the C
memory will be zeroed out, and (2) dereferencing csl in the
unsafe.Pointer conversion.
