Series tools/ocaml: build/compatibility fixes with OCaml 5.0 for Xen 4.17 | expand

This is not strictly necessary since it is essentially a no-op
currently: a cast to void* and value*, even in OCaml 5.0.

However it does make it clearer that what we have here is not a regular
OCaml value, but one allocated with Abstract_tag or Custom_tag,
and follows the example from the manual more closely:
https://v2.ocaml.org/manual/intfc.html#ss:c-outside-head

It also makes it clearer that these modules have been reviewed for
compat with OCaml 5.0.

No functional change.
