[PATCH 3/3] tools/xenconsoled: Log Xen boot messages at startup.

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>]

When xenconsoled starts, there will be log lines in the Xen console ring from
boot, even though VIRQ_CON_RING is not yet pending.

Add a force option to handle_hv_logs() which bypasses the event channel check,
allowing xenconsoled to drain the Xen boot messages when it starts, rather
than at the first subsequent time that VIRQ_CON_RING becomes set.
