checkpatch: generalize xen handle matching in the list of types
All the xen stable APIs define handle types of the form: xen<subject of API>_handle and some define additional handle types of the form: xen<subject of API>_<purpose of handle>_handle Examples of these are xenforeignmemory_handle and xenforeignmemory_resource_handle. Both of these types will be misparsed by checkpatch if they appear as the first token in a line since, as types defined by an external library, they do not conform to the QEMU CODING_STYLE, which suggests CamelCase. A previous patch (5ac067a24a8) added xendevicemodel_handle to the list of types. This patch changes that to xen\w+_handle such that it will match all Xen stable API handles of the forms detailed above.
