hotplug: update xencommons script to run only when needed

Currently xencommons prints an error if /proc/xen/capabilities does not
exist when started on a non-xen kernel.

Update the xencommons script to run only when needed:
- do not run if /proc/xen does not exist
- check if /proc/xen/capabilities exists before doing the grep for dom0
- use variable for /proc/xen/capabilities
- use grep -q instead of stdout redirection when looking for xenfs,
  its already used later

Thanks.  I like most of this.  But:

Why ?  Is this going to move ?  I think if it moves we have other
problems, since it''s part of the published /proc interface from
Xen-enabled kernels.

There is no special reason for the variable.
Do you want me to send a patch without the new variable?

Right.

If you like, or I can just take it out myself.
