[PATCH] x86: reserve a boot-loader ID number for Xen
Claim an ID number for Xen in the LOADER_TYPE field.
Also, keep the table in zero-page.txt consistent with boot.txt.
[hpa says: 6 was skipped because I couldn't rule out that it hadn't been
unofficially used. It seemed easier to skip it for now.]
