error: methods called `as_*` usually take self by reference or self by mutable reference; consider choosing a less ambiguous name

Prior to sending the memory the full state is not needed only the
configuration. This is sufficient to create the appropriate structures
in the guest and have the memory allocations ready for filling.
Update the protocol documentation to add a separate config step and move
the state to after the memory is transferred. As the VM is created in a
separate step to restoring it the requires a slightly different
constructor as well as saving the VM object for the subsequent commands.

Similarly as the VM booting process, on AArch64 systems,
the vCPUs should be created before the creation of GIC. This
commit refactors the vCPU save/restore code to achieve the
above-mentioned restoring order.

There will be some cases where the implementation of the snapshot()
function from the Snapshottable trait will require to modify some
internal data, therefore we make this possible by updating the trait
definition with snapshot(&mut self).

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.
