[Patch] fix automatic NUMA placement

Hi,

the automatic NUMA placement code (find_relaxed_node) in 
XendDomainInfo.py contains several bugs:
1. The domain just created shall not be considered in the load calculation.
2. Nodes with too less memory for the domain must be considered during 
the load calculation phase and abandoned later, currently these nodes 
win with a load of 0.
3. CPUs which are offline shall not be considered in load calculation.
4. (Integer-)Dividing the load value by the number of cores per node may 
conceal subtle load differences resulting in a non-optimal node to be 
chosen.

Attached patch fixes these bugs.

Regards,
Andre.

P.S. If you don't like the lambda expression, you can use the more 
C-like version in the next line:
     if dom.domid == self.domid: continue
