88957116c9 qemu: Use memory-backend-* for regular guest memory
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.

2d3cf60328 qemu: hook up pcie-root-port hotplug='off' option
If a pcie-root-port or pcie-downstream-port has hotplug='off' in its
<target> subelement, and if the qemu binary supports the hotplug=false
option, then it will be added to the commandline for the pcie
controller. This controller will then not allow any hotplug/unplug of
devices while the guest is running (and the hotplug capability won't
be advertised to the guest OS, so the guest OS also won't present
unplugging of PCI devices as an option).

  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'>
    <target hotplug='off'/>
  </controller>

For any PCI controllers other than pcie-downstream-port and
pcie-root-port, of for qemu binaries that don't support the hotplug
commandline option, an error will be logged during validation.
