David Hildenbrand e681645862 hostmem: Allow for specifying a ThreadContext for preallocation
Let's allow for specifying a thread context via the "prealloc-context"
property. When set, preallcoation threads will be crated via the
thread context -- inheriting the same CPU affinity as the thread
context.

Pinning preallcoation threads to CPUs can heavily increase performance
in NUMA setups, because, preallocation from a CPU close to the target
NUMA node(s) is faster then preallocation from a CPU further remote,
simply because of memory bandwidth for initializing memory with zeroes.
This is especially relevant for very large VMs backed by huge/gigantic
pages, whereby preallocation is mandatory.
