Currently xen_hypervisor and xen_module commands are available only for
ARM64 EFI.
For x86_64 if the Xen format is portable executable there's no way to
pass multiple modules (the feature is available using multiboot2 but
only for ELF files).
So instead on adding new GRUB commands reuse the already available
ones.
The modules are passed using LoadFile2 already used to pass initrd
to Linux kernel.
An extension allows to pass also kernel file.
To pass command lines uses LoadOptions, EFI code already handles
passing Xen and kernel command lines using LoadOptions.

Frediano Ziglio (5):
  kern/list: Add a grub_list_length function
  kern/list: Add a grub_list_append function
  arm64/xen: Allows to use xen_hypervisor and xen_module on x86_64-efi
  arm64/xen: Use LoadFile2 protocol for Xen boot
  arm64/xen: Allows to use kernel command line from first module
