So far, Libvirt configures memory-backend-* for memory hotplug,
possibly NUMA nodes and in a few other cases. This patch
switches to constructing the memory-backend-* command line for
all cases. To keep ability to migrate guests a little hack is
used: the ID of the object is set to the one that QEMU uses
internally anyways. These IDs are stable (first started to appear
somewhere around v0.13.0-rc0~96) and can't change.
In fact, this patch does exactly what QEMU does internally. The
reason for moving the logic into Libvirt is that QEMU wants to
deprecate the old style of specifying memory.
So far, only x84_64 test cases are changed, because tests for
other architectures use older capabilities, which still lack the
QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_MEMORY_BACKEND capability and they don't report
the RAM ID.

Initially introduced in v3.10.0-rc1~172.
When generating a path for memory-backend-file or -mem-path, qemu
driver will use the following pattern:
$memoryBackingDir/libvirt/qemu/$id-$shortName
where $memoryBackingDir defaults to /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/ram but
can be overridden in qemu.conf. Anyway, the "/libvirt/qemu/" part
looks redundant, because it's already contained in the default,
or creates unnecessary nesting if overridden in qemu.conf.

Format the 'vhost-user-fs' device on the QEMU command line.
This device provides shared file system access using the FUSE protocol
carried over virtio.
The actual file server is implemented in an external vhost-user-fs device
backend process.
