[PATCH v6 00/18] libxl: JSON infrastructure, fixes and prerequisite patches for new API

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>]

This series contains prerequisite patches to build the new libxl API called
libxl_retrieve_domain_configuration. The design and implementation of that new
API is being discussed at the moment. I think it's worthwhile to send out these
prerequisite patches to reduce the length of patchset.

This patch series contains 3 types of patches
1. push some configuration handling logic from xl to libxl
2. bugfix for JSON generator
3. JSON infrastructure: change to generator, introduce parser, introduce
   deep copy functions
