virtio-mem: Exclude unplugged memory during migration
The content of unplugged memory is undefined and should not be migrated, ever. Exclude all unplugged memory during precopy using the precopy notifier infrastructure introduced for free page hinting in virtio-balloon.
Unplugged memory is marked as "not dirty", meaning it won't be considered for migration.

virtio-mem: Allow notifiers for size changes
We want to send qapi events in case the size of a virtio-mem device changes. This allows upper layers to always know how much memory is actually currently consumed via a virtio-mem device.
Unfortuantely, we have to report the id of our proxy device. Let's provide an easy way for our proxy device to register, so it can send the qapi events. Piggy-backing on the notifier infrastructure (although we'll only ever have one notifier registered) seems to be an easy way.

virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hot(un)plug
This is the very basic/initial version of virtio-mem. An introduction to virtio-mem can be found in the Linux kernel driver [1]. While it can be used in the current state for hotplug of a smaller amount of memory, it will heavily benefit from resizeable memory regions in the future.
Each virtio-mem device manages a memory region (provided via a memory backend). After requested by the hypervisor ("requested-size"), the guest can try to plug/unplug blocks of memory within that region, in order to reach the requested size. Initially, and after a reboot, all memory is unplugged (except in special cases - reboot during postcopy).
The guest may only try to plug/unplug blocks of memory within the usable region size. The usable region size is a little bigger than the requested size, to give the device driver some flexibility. The usable region size will only grow, except on reboots or when all memory is requested to get unplugged. The guest can never plug more memory than requested. Unplugged memory will get zapped/discarded, similar to in a balloon device.
The block size is variable, however, it is always chosen in a way such that THP splits are avoided (e.g., 2MB). The state of each block (plugged/unplugged) is tracked in a bitmap.
As virtio-mem devices (e.g., virtio-mem-pci) will be memory devices, we now expose "VirtioMEMDeviceInfo" via "query-memory-devices".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two important follow-up items that are in the works: 1. Resizeable memory regions: Use resizeable allocations/RAM blocks to grow/shrink along with the usable region size. This avoids creating initially very big VMAs, RAM blocks, and KVM slots. 2. Protection of unplugged memory: Make sure the gust cannot actually make use of unplugged memory.
Other follow-up items that are in the works: 1. Exclude unplugged memory during migration (via precopy notifier). 2. Handle remapping of memory. 3. Support for other architectures.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example usage (virtio-mem-pci is introduced in follow-up patches):
Start QEMU with two virtio-mem devices (one per NUMA node): $ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4G,maxmem=20G \ -smp sockets=2,cores=2 \ -numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-1 -numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=2-3 \ [...] -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=8G \ -device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm0,memdev=mem0,node=0,requested-size=0M \ -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=8G \ -device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm1,memdev=mem1,node=1,requested-size=1G
Query the configuration: (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm0" memaddr: 0x140000000 node: 0 requested-size: 0 size: 0 max-size: 8589934592 block-size: 2097152 memdev: /objects/mem0 Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm1" memaddr: 0x340000000 node: 1 requested-size: 1073741824 size: 1073741824 max-size: 8589934592 block-size: 2097152 memdev: /objects/mem1
Add some memory to node 0: (qemu) qom-set vm0 requested-size 500M
Remove some memory from node 1: (qemu) qom-set vm1 requested-size 200M
Query the configuration again: (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm0" memaddr: 0x140000000 node: 0 requested-size: 524288000 size: 524288000 max-size: 8589934592 block-size: 2097152 memdev: /objects/mem0 Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm1" memaddr: 0x340000000 node: 1 requested-size: 209715200 size: 209715200 max-size: 8589934592 block-size: 2097152 memdev: /objects/mem1
