From time to time we are asked which PCI addresses are reserved
in QEMU. Let's document them in one place, it's easier than
reconstructing the list from the code each time.

The idea behind this document is to show, with actual examples,
that users should not expect PCI addresses in the domain XML and
in the guest OS to match.
The first zPCI example already serves this purpose perfectly, so
in the interest of keeping the page as brief and easy to digest
as possible the second one is removed.

The section about VFIO devices is kept separate from the rest
because it's less about domain XML and guest OS disagreeing on the
PCI address of a device, and more about which of the two PCI
addresses in the domain XML is even relevant to the guest OS.
The section on zPCI addresses, on the other hand, falls squarely
in the "more complex cases" category, so it should live in the
corresponding section.

seen in the domain XML and by the guest OS, which is a topic that
