prevent them from being serialised alongside the API properties. This will also
be useful for moving the API bindings out of XenModel.

When the update precheck fails with UPDATE_PRECHECK_FAILED_UNKNOWN_ERROR, we try to find the actual error in the failure's parameters (in the form of an xml string containing the error code) and display that error instead of the "unknown error".

Changed the pre-check error message to refer to the absence of the Tools
when that is suspected to be the case.

A bit of refactoring as requested by the reviewers
I decided not remove the NullReferenceExceptions and throw the Failures
immediately in order to avoid the additional error handling that seems to be unnecessary there. However, the reason I've decided to keep it as is is that it would change what gets logged and the performance gain would not be noticeable anyway. Furthermore, the current implementation (try-catchall) catches any other exceptions providing fallback to the default Failure.
Detect both VM_LACKS_FEATURE and VM_LACKS_FEATURE_SUSPEND, show proper error message on the pre-check page in the Install Updates Wizard

Perform all the prechecks on applicable hosts only (i.e. the hosts that don't have the update applied already), with the following exceptions:
- The HA check, which is performed on the pool master
- The server-side precheck (PatchPrecheckCheck) which will still be performed on all servers in the pool and will show the warning if the update has already been applied on some servers
This commit also adds an override to the HAOffCheck.SuccessfulCheckDescription to show the pool name instead of the master's if the check is successful.
Also, in the PatchPrecheckCheck, I had moved the code that checks if the patch is already applied to the very beginning (before the host liveness check), so it will return the warning that the server will be skipped even if the server is not reachable

- On the Updates tab: for new versions, check that the version of XenCenter is at least the latest. If not, give an additional option to download a newer XenCenter (for both updates and upgrades), and not offer "Download and Install" (for updates).
- In the Patching wizard: if the update is a new version, we force the user to first update their XenCenter to the new version
- In the RPU wizard: if the server version is not the latest and their XenCenter version is not the latest from updates.xml, we assume that they want to upgrade to the latest XenServer version and we force the user to first update their XenCenter to the latest version.

- added a new precheck, called "Live patching status" which checks is a reboot is needed for each host. If reboot is needed, the check will display a warning, otherwise it will show a green tickbox, saying that the server does not need to be rebooted, and if live patching is used, this information will be included as well.

XenCenter will check host.patches_requiring_reboot when a host restart is due while a batch update is in progress. If the restart is not required, XenCenter will skip relevant PlanActions.
The intention here is to check this whenever a restart is due according to the original schedule - this way a completely livepatchable update can prevent the restart while the key batch hotfixing logic is not changed.

This commit implements the check for LiveUpdate capability of a patch. If
the patch is completely live-updatable, XenCenter will not restart the
host (but will do further checks once it has finished installing the
update - separate ticket)
