5540acb9a2 conf, qemu: enable NVDIMM support for ppc64
Using the 'uuid' element for ppc64 NVDIMM memory added in the
previous patch, use it in qemuBuildMemoryDeviceStr() to pass
it over to QEMU.

Another ppc64 restriction is the necessity of a mem->labelsize,
given than ppc64 only support label-area backed NVDIMMs.

Finally, we don't want ppc64 NVDIMMs to align up due to the
high risk of going beyond the end of file with a 256MiB
increment that the user didn't predict. Align it down
instead. If target size is less than the minimum of
256MiB + labelsize, error out since QEMU will error out
if we attempt to round it up to the minimum.

08ed673901 conf: Introduce optional 'uuid' element for NVDIMM memory
ppc64 NVDIMM support was implemented in QEMU by commit [1].
The support is similar to what x86 already does, aside from
an extra 'uuid' element.

This patch introduces a new optional 'uuid' element for the
NVDIMM memory model. This element behaves like the 'uuid'
element of the domain definition - if absent, we'll create
a new one, otherwise use the one provided by the XML.
The 'uuid' element is exclusive to pseries guests and are
unavailable for other architectures.

Next patch will use this new element to add NVDIMM support
for ppc64.
