libxl: allow libxl to calculate shadow mem requirements
    
    Long, long ago before libxl_get_required_shadow_memory() was
    made publicly available, its code was copied to the libxl driver
    for calculating shadow memory requirements of HVM domains.
    
    Long ago, libxl_get_required_shadow_memory() was exported in
    libxl_utils.h and included in xen-devel packages everywhere.
    
    Remove the copied code, which has become stale, and let libxl
    provode a proper shadow memory value.
