libxl: Improve reporting of die_id in capabilities
    
    On Xen, libvirt runs in a VM (typically dom0) and does not have an accurate
    picture of numa and cpu topology of the underlying physical machine using
    the "usual" mechanisms. numa info and cpu toplogy are retrieved from libxl
    and used to populate the libvirt conterparts. Commit 7b79ee2f78b introduced
    support for reporting die_id in capabilities, but did not account for
    special handling of numa and cpu topology in libxl.
    
    Currently, Xen does not report die_id in the libxl_cputopology structure.
    In the meantime, set die_id to 0, which was suggested by the Xen developers
    and is slightly better than random garbage such as
    
    <cpu id='1' socket_id='0' die_id='-1073069552' core_id='0' siblings='0-1'/>
