This opens the backing file read-only, makes the pages in the mmap()
read-only and also makes the KVM mapping read-only. The file is also
mapped with MAP_PRIVATE to make the changes local to this process only.
This is functional alternative to having support for making a
virtio-pmem device readonly. Unfortunately there is no concept of
readonly virtio-pmem (or any type of NVDIMM/PMEM) in the Linux kernel so
to be able to have a block device that is appears readonly in the guest
requires significant specification and kernel changes.

The FsConfig structure has been recently adjusted so that the default
value matches between OpenAPI and CLI. Unfortunately, with the current
description, there is no way from the OpenAPI to describe a cache_size
value "None", so that DAX does not get enabled. Usually, using a Rust
"Option" works because the default value is None. But in this case, the
default value is Some(8G), which means we cannot describe a None.
This commit tackles the problem, introducing an explicit parameter
"dax", and leaving "cache_size" as a simple u64 integer.
This way, the default value is dax=true and cache_size=8G, but it lets
the opportunity to disable DAX entirely with dax=false, which will
simply ignore the cache_size value.

The point of having such support in cloud-hypervisor is to be able to

One interesting use case is to boot directly from an image passed
through virtio-pmem, instead of going through virtio-blk. This can
allow good performances while avoiding the guest cache, which would
