On some machines (for example Thinkpad P52), UEFI GOP reports
framebuffer located above 4GB (0x4000000000 on that machine). This
address does not fit in {xen,dom0}_vga_console_info.u.vesa_lfb.lfb_base
field, which is 32bit. The overflow here cause all kind of memory
corruption when anything tries to write something on the screen,
starting with zeroing the whole framebuffer in vesa_init().

Fix this similar to how it's done in Linux: add ext_lfb_base field at
the end of the structure, to hold upper 32bits of the address. Since the
field is added at the end of the structure, it will work with older
Linux versions too (other than using possibly truncated address - no
worse than without this change). Thanks to ABI containing size of the
structure (start_info.console.dom0.info_size), Linux can detect when
this field is present and use it appropriately then.

Since this change public interface and use __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__,
bump __XEN_LATEST_INTERFACE_VERSION__.

Note: if/when backporting this change to Xen <= 4.12, #if in xen.h needs
to be extended with " || defined(__XEN__)".

Changes in v2:
 - guard ext_lfb_base with #if __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__, but always
   include whe building Xen itself
 - add a helper function for lfb_base
Changes in v3:
 - add padding field
 - add parentheses around <<
 - unwrap format string per coding style, restore 0x
 - drop #if defined(__XEN__) needed only in backport
 - bump __XEN_LATEST_INTERFACE_VERSION__
Changes in v4:
 - fix parentheses
 - fix padding
