These four new functions in xl_vmcontrol.c needs to be hidden behind
LIBXL_HAVE_NO_SUSPEND_RESUME, like the whole xl_migrate.c file is.
Both prototypes for main_*() are already hidden as well as the new
command in xl_cmdtables.

Or alternatively, we could probably have the command been present on
Arm, but I don't know if libxl_domain_suspend_only() is going to work.
It looks like it only depends on the hypervisor. I can't find any logic
that would treat Arm differently, besides the presence of
LIBXL_HAVE_NO_SUSPEND_RESUME.

But best bet would be to hide those four functions when
LIBXL_HAVE_NO_SUSPEND_RESUME is defined.

Thanks,
