This will allow progressive porting of parts of the VMM to using
versioned state. A new trait VersionMapped is introduced with a default
implementation that returns an empty VersionMap to ease implementation.
If a struct is updated the the trait will need to be fully implemented
with VersionMapped::version_map() returning a new VersionMap handling
the change.

A Snapshottable component can snapshot itself and
provide a MigrationSnapshot payload as a result.
A MigrationSnapshot payload is a map of component IDs to a list of
migration sections (MigrationSection). As component can be made of
several Migratable sub-components (e.g. the DeviceManager and its
device objects), a migration snapshot can be made of multiple snapshot
itself.
A snapshot is a list of migration sections, each section being a
component state snapshot. Having multiple sections allows for easier and
backward compatible migration payload extensions.
Once created, a migratable component snapshot may be transported and this
is what the Transportable trait defines, through 2 methods: send and recv.
