Start loading the kernel as possible in the VM in a separate thread.
Whilst it is loading other work can be carried out such as initialising
the devices.
The biggest performance improvement is seen with a more complex set of
devices. If using e.g. four virtio-net devices then the time to start the
kernel improves by 20-30ms. With the simplest configuration the
improvement was of the order of 2-3ms.

This allows the same code for generating the kernel command line to be
used on both aarch64 and x86_64 when the latter starts loading the
kernel in asynchronously.

This is not required for x86_64 and maintains a tight coupling between
kernel loading and the DeviceManager.

This reverts commit 87eed369cd.
The reason we're reverting this is that OpenAPI Specification[0] doesn't
know how to deal with unsigned types. :-/
Right now the best to do is keep it as it's, as an int64, and try to fix
OpenAPI, or even switch to swagger, as the latter knows how to properly
deal with those. However, switching to swagger is far from being an 1:1
transition and will require time to experiment, thus reverting this for
now seems the best approach.

The Token Bucket fields are, on the Cloud Hypervisor side, u64.
However, we expose those as int64 in the OpenAPI YAML file.
With that in mind, let's adjust the yaml file to expose those as uint64.

Improve the request parsing/handling code by allowing an error status to

Extend the Domain structure to store the information about each domain
being in bypass mode or not. Based on this new information, the address
translation of the virtio devices is performed according to the bypass
mode of each domain. And both MAP/UNMAP requests are generating errors
in case the domain has been previously set to bypass mode.

In anticipation for associating more than mappings with a domain, we
factorize the list of mappings associated with a domain behind a
dedicated Domain structure. We also update the field name so that it
reads better in the code.

Exposing the VIRTIO_IOMMU_F_BYPASS_CONFIG feature to the guest, which
allows to update the bypass global knob through virtio configuration.
Based on the value of this global knob, the address translations for
endpoints that have not been added to a domain is allowed with a simple
identity mapping.
By default, we enable the bypass mode for all endpoints that are not
attached to any domain.

Based on the VIRTIO specification, we must be able to support multiple
endpoints per domain. This is fixed along with the introduction of some
simplification regarding how we can retrieve the external mapping
directly based on the endpoint.

If using the ACPI based hotplug only memory can be added so if the
hotplug RAM size is the same as the boot RAM size then do not include
the memory manager DSDT entries.
Also: this change simplifies the code marginally by making the
HotplugMethod enum Copyable.
