v2:
 * Drop xenevtchn and xengnttab as well

This has been fixed in Xen 4.15 by the uselibs.mk logic, but 4.14 and older
cause everything linking against libxenstore to also try linking against
libxenctrl.  It also causes RPM to create unexpected dependencies between
subpackages, which is a problem when trying to separate the stable and
unstable libs.

Having slept on this and I am not convinced that this warrants
backporting.  I prefer to take a generally cautious approach to
changes to packaging and the build system, as this is much less
disruptive to downstreams.
