xen-block: Use specific blockdev driver
... when a xen-block backend instance is created via xenstore. Following 8d17adf34f50 ("block: remove support for using "file" driver with block/char devices"), using the "file" blockdev driver for everything doesn't work anymore, we need to use the "host_device" driver when the disk image is a block device and "file" driver when it is a regular file.
