Allow changes to the memory hierarchy to be accumulated and
made visible all at once. This reduces computational effort,
especially when an accelerator (e.g. kvm) is involved.
Useful when a single register update causes multiple changes
to an address space.

Instead of adding and deleting regions in one pass, do a delete
pass followed by an add pass. This fixes the following case:
from:
0x0000-0x0fff ram (a1)
0x1000-0x1fff mmio (a2)
0x2000-0x2fff ram (a3)
to:
0x0000-0x2fff ram (b1)
The single pass algorithm removed a1, added b2, then removed a2 and a3,
which caused the wrong memory map to be built. The two pass algorithm
removes a1, a2, and a3, then adds b1.

As with the rest of the memory API, the caller associates an eventfd
with an address, and the memory API takes care of registering or
unregistering when the address is made visible or invisible to the
guest.

For non-RAM memory regions, we cannot tell whether this is an I/O region
or an MMIO region. Since the qemu backing registration is different for
the two, we have to defer initialization until we know which address
space we are in.
These shenanigans will be removed once the backing registration is unified
with the memory API.

I/O regions will not have ram_addrs, so this is a better name.

Prepare for multiple address space support by abstracting away the details
of registering a memory range with qemu's flat representation into an
AddressSpace object.
Note operations which are memory specific are not abstracted, since they will
never be called on I/O address spaces anyway.

get_system_memory() provides the root of the memory hierarchy.
This interface is intended to be private between memory.c and exec.c.
If this file is included elsewhere, it should be regarded as a bug (or
TODO item). However, it will be temporarily needed for the conversion
to hierarchical memory routing.

Simple implementations of memory routers, for example the Cirrus VGA memory banks
or the 440FX PAM registers can generate adjacent memory regions which are contiguous.
Detect these and merge them; this saves kvm memory slots and shortens lookup times.

The memory API separates the attributes of a memory region (its size, how
reads or writes are handled, dirty logging, and coalescing) from where it
is mapped and whether it is enabled. This allows a device to configure
a memory region once, then hand it off to its parent bus to map it according
to the bus configuration.
Hierarchical registration also allows a device to compose a region out of
a number of sub-regions with different properties; for example some may be
RAM while others may be MMIO.
