e50a641126 devices: add debug-console device
This commit adds the debug-console (or debugcon) device to CHV. It is a
very simple device on I/O port 0xe9 supported by QEMU and BOCHS. It is
meant for printing information as easy as possible, without any
necessary configuration from the guest at all.

It is primarily interesting to OS/kernel and firmware developers as they
can produce output as soon as the guest starts without any configuration
of a serial device or similar. Furthermore, a kernel hacker might use
this device for information of type B whereas information of type A are
printed to the serial device.

This device is not used by default by Linux, Windows, or any other
"real" OS, but only by toy kernels and during firmware development.

In the CLI, it can be configured similar to --console or --serial with
the --debug-console parameter.

c297d8d796 vmm: use RateLimiterGroup for virtio-blk devices
Add a 'rate_limit_groups' field to VmConfig that defines a set of
named RateLimiterGroups.

When the 'rate_limit_group' field of DiskConfig is defined, all
virtio-blk queues will be rate-limited by a shared RateLimiterGroup.
The lifecycle of all RateLimiterGroups is tied to the Vm.
A RateLimiterGroup may exist even if no Disks are configured to use
the RateLimiterGroup. Disks may be hot-added or hot-removed from the
RateLimiterGroup.

When the 'rate_limiter' field of DiskConfig is defined, we construct
an anonymous RateLimiterGroup whose lifecycle is tied to the Disk.
This is primarily done for api backwards compatability. Importantly,
the behavior is not the same! This implementation rate_limits the
aggregate bandwidth / iops of an individual disk rather than the
bandwidth / iops of an individual queue of a disk.

When neither the 'rate_limit_group' or the 'rate_limiter' fields of
DiskConfig is defined, the Disk is not rate-limited.
