tools: libxl: allow permissive qemu-upstream pci passthrough.

Since XSA-131 qemu-xen now restricts access to PCI cfg by default. In
order to allow local configuration of the existing libxl_device_pci
"permissive" flag needs to be plumbed through via the new QMP property
added by the XSA-131 patches.

Versions of QEMU prior to XSA-131 did not support this permissive
property, so we only pass it if it is true. Older versions only
supported permissive mode.

qemu-xen-traditional already supports the permissive mode setting via
xenstore.
