Prior to this commit, if the Linux kernel's Xen-related components were
built into the kernel (as opposed to the use of kernel modules), then
the dracut module initialization would fail during the generation of the
initial ramdisk image.
This commit corrects this issue by using an if/then block.

There was a logic error in pending requests cleanup code, causing
policy_pending_max being set to 0, even if there were more pending
requests. This effectively limited maximum pending requests to 1, after
some system uptime, because policy_pending_max set to 0 makes the code
looks only at the first pending request slot.
While at it, remove outdated FIXME comment, actually this bug is in the
code implementing this FIXME.

Can close windows of a VM while it's paused, and can not accidentally
harm dom0 by errant clicking.
Discussion in https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/881
Thanks to rustybird for suggested implementation.
Design documentation says:
'note string dom0 does not match the $anyvm pattern; all other names do'
This behaviour was broken, because 'is not' in python isn't the same as
string comparison. In theory this could result in some service
erroneously allowed to execute in dom0, but in practice such services are
not installed in dom0 at all, so the only impact was misleading error
message.

I need to set some flags in order to boot as described here:
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/uefi-troubleshooting/
My settings look like this:
$ efibootmgr -v
BootCurrent: 0000
Boot0000* Qubes HD(...)/File(\EFI\qubes\xen.efi)p.l.a.c.e.h.o...
which causes awk to get confused and think my $EFI_DIR should be:
/EFI/qubesp.l.a.c.e.h.o.l.d.e.r. ./.m.a.p.b.s. ./.n.o.e.x.i.t.b.o.o.t.
This causes the script to later bail:
if [ ! -d "$EFI_DIR" ]; then
# non-EFI system
exit 0;
fi
So my xen.cfg did not get new entries when installing dom0 kernel packages.
qrexec-client -t/-T (and therefore, qvm-run --pass-io) only handled the
escape character, \033. Everything else, such as Unicode and obscure
control characters, was passed through from the VM to the dom0 terminal.
Instead, replace all bytes except for a benign subset of ASCII. That's
still enough to allow progress bars to be drawn (tested using
"wget --progress=bar:force" and "pv --force").
This will ease filtering entries when constructing applications menu.
For example '<OnlyUnallocated/>' key used in Xfce4 before looks to
introduce some problems.
