linux: enable Xen everywhere it can be
I don't think there's any reason to have a seperate kernel variant
because of this, with all the maintenance burden that imposes.  Debian
and Fedora both enable all these options on their normal kernels.

Alias the Linux Xen attributes, so this change should be seemless for
people who were using the Xen kernels up to now.

All the Xen options are marked as optional anyway, so it should be
fine to try to enable them on non-x86 platforms as well.

Cherry-picking this for Spectrum because PVH is cloud-hypervisor's
preferred boot entry point on x86, and it'll complain if our kernel
doesn't support it.

Fixes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/115182

(cherry picked from commit 5f24024de6f6405bb9ae9fc4c960b3fba84613b9)
