Start xenpaging via config option.
TODO: add config option for different pagefile directory
TODO: add libxl support
TODO: parse config values like 42K, 42M, 42G, 42%
Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de>

v3:
move debug for stopping xenpaging to destroyXenPaging
v2:
unlink logfile instead of truncating it.
allows hardlinking for further inspection
