When a page table page gets de-validated, its type reference count drops
to zero (and PGT_validated gets cleared), but its type remains intact.
XEN_DOMCTL_getpageframeinfo3, therefore, so far reported prior usage for
such pages. An intermediate write to such a page via e.g.
MMU_NORMAL_PT_UPDATE, however, would transition the page's type to
PGT_writable_page, thus altering what XEN_DOMCTL_getpageframeinfo3 would
return. In libxc the decision which pages to normalize / localize
depends solely on the type returned from the domctl. As a result without
further precautions the guest won't be able to tell whether such a page
has had its (apparent) PTE entries transitioned to the new MFNs.

Add a check of PGT_validated, thus consistently avoiding normalization /
localization in the tool stack.

Also use XEN_DOMCTL_PFINFO_NOTAB in the variable's initializer instead
open coding it.
