Load the virtio.c state into vring.c when we start dataplane mode and
vice versa when stopping dataplane mode. This patch makes it possible
to start and stop dataplane any time while the guest is running.
This will eventually allow us to go back to QEMU main loop for
bdrv_drain_all() and live migration. In the meantime, this patch makes
the dataplane lifecycle more robust but should make no visible
difference. It may be useful in the virtio-net dataplane effort.

Add ref/unref calls at the following places:
- places where memory regions are stashed by a listener and
used outside the BQL (including in Xen or KVM).
- memory_region_find callsites
- creation of aliases and containers (only the aliased/contained
region gets a reference to avoid loops)
- around calls to del_subregion/add_subregion, where the region
could disappear after the first call

So far, the size of all regions passed to listeners could fit in 64 bits,
because artificial regions (containers and aliases) are eliminated by
the memory core, leaving only device regions which have reasonable sizes
An IOMMU however cannot be eliminated by the memory core, and may have
an artificial size, hence we may need 65 bits to represent its size.
