84df50dc87 qemuBlockStorageSourceGetBackendProps: Unify ordering of fields
Use the same ordering of the relevant fields as we do for the format
layer -blockdev so that later they can be refactored without test
fallout.

988f8443fb qemu: require memfd memory for virtio 'blob' support
The virtio-gpu 'blob' support was insufficiently validated. Qemu
requires a memfd memory backing in order to use udmabuf and enable blob
support. Example error:

    $ virsh start rhel9
    error: Failed to start domain 'rhel9'
    error: internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor: 2023-07-18T02:33:57.083178Z qemu-kvm: -device {"driver":"virtio-vga","id":"video0","max_outputs":1,"blob":true,"bus":"pcie.0","addr":"0x1"}: cannot enable blob resources without udmabuf

a52c68443d qemu_command: Always use modern syntax of '-m'
Specify the memory size by using '-m size=2048k' instead of just '-m 2'.

The new syntax is used when memory hotplug is enabled. To preserve
memory sizing, if memory hotplug is disabled the size is rounded down to
the nearest mebibyte.

3138e204b2 test: regenerate virtio-blob expected outputs
Somehow the tests didn't get regenerated after rebasing, which broke the
build.

168b0ca3fc qemu: Implement 'blob' support for virtio gpu
This can improve performance for some guests since it reduces copying of
display data between host and guest. Requires udmabuf on the host.
