Currently the driver only exposes the ability to connect to the serial console
of a Xen guest, which doesn't work for a PV guest. Since for an HVM guest the
serial devices are duplicated as consoles it is sufficient to just use the
console devices unconditionally.
Tested with the following bit of config XML:
<domain type='xen'>
...
<devices>
<console type='pty'>
<target type='xen'/>
</console>
</devices>
</domain>
I have observed and tested this on ARM but I believe it also applies to x86 PV
guests.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
