Patch: implementing least priority interrupt routing

Hi,

the attached patch implements interrupt routing to least priority processor
for HVM domains.
Instead of round robin the vcpu with the lowest processor priority is selected
for the interrupt. If multiple vcpus share the same low priority interrupts
are distributed between those round robin.
Tested with BS2000 domain (3 vcpus, idle processors are now preferred
interrupt target).
