xen/xenbus: add xenbus_setup_ring() service function

Most PV device frontends share very similar code for setting up shared
ring buffers:

- allocate page(s)
- init the ring admin data
- give the backend access to the ring via grants

Tearing down the ring requires similar actions in all frontends again:

- remove grants
- free the page(s)

Provide service functions xenbus_setup_ring() and xenbus_teardown_ring()
for that purpose.
