BTW, just in case anyone decides to try this -- this will create a
domain in the "paused" state, and it does not create a "reaper" for it
when the domain shuts down. You have to manually `xl unpause` the
domain for it to run, and then `xl destroy` the domain after it shuts down.
The first is just an implementation detail; the second requires adding
the ability to receive events, which will be the next "level" of libxl
event handling support.
