Zap the global VGA_RAM_SIZE #define, make the vga ram size configurable
for standard vga and vmware vga. cirrus and qxl are left with a fixed
size (and private VGA_RAM_SIZE #define) for now.
qxl needs some non-trivial adjustments in the mode list handling deal
with a runtime-configurable size, which calls for a separate qxl patch.
cirrus emulates cards which have 2 MB (isa) and 4 MB (pci), so I guess
it would make sense to use these sizes. That change would break
migration though, so I left it fixed at 8 MB size. Making it
configurabls is pretty pointless for cirrus as we have to match real
hardware.

The vgabios will check whenever any given video mode will fit into the
given video memory before adding it to the list of available modes, so
there is no need to keep xmax * ymax * 32bpp lower than VGA_RAM_SIZE.
Lets raise the limits a bit. Should be good for a few years, display

With pc-0.12, we map the video RAM both through the PCI BAR (the guest does

this double map, and aborts.

Most VGA memory access modes require MMIO handling as they demand weird
logic to get a byte from or into the video RAM. However, there is one
exception: chain 4 mode with all memory planes enabled for writing. This
mode actually allows lineary mapping, which can then be combined with
dirty logging to accelerate KVM.
This patch accelerates specifically VBE accesses like they are used by
grub in graphical mode. Not only the standard VGA adapter benefits from
this, also vmware and spice in VGA mode.

qxl is a paravirtual graphics card. The qxl device is the bridge
between the guest and the spice server (aka libspice-server). The
spice server will send the rendering commands to the spice client, which
will actually render them.
The spice server is also able to render locally, which is done in case
the guest wants read something from video memory. Local rendering is
also used to support display over vnc and sdl.
qxl is activated using "-vga qxl". qxl supports multihead, additional
cards can be added via '-device qxl".

Apparently, VBE maps the VGA vram to a fixed physical location. KVM requires
that all mappings of the VGA vram have dirty tracking enabled on them. Any
access to the VGA vram through the VBE mapping currently fails to result in
dirty page tracking updates causing a black screen.
This is the true root cause of VMware VGA not working correctly under KVM and
likely also an issue with some of the std-vga black screen issues too.
Cirrus does not enable VBE so it would not be a problem when using Cirrus.

All VGA devices share a common field subset; currently they do so by
a macro which defines the common fields inline their state structures,
relying on the the common state being placed at offset 0 in the structure.
This makes refactoring the code difficult and requires a lot of error prone
casts.
Replace the macro by a new VGACommonState structure, and the casts by
regular field access and container_of() for upcasts.

When the vga resolution changes, a new display surface is not allocated
immediately; instead that is deferred until the next update. However,
if we're running without a display client attached, that won't happen
and the next bitblt is likely to cause a segfault by overflowing the
display surface.

Patch 5/7
This patch changes the graphical_console_init function to return an
allocated DisplayState instead of a QEMUConsole.
This patch contains just the graphical_console_init change and few other
modifications mainly in console.c and vl.c.
It was necessary to move the display frontends (e.g. sdl and vnc)
initialization after machine->init in vl.c.
This patch does *not* include any required changes to any device, these
changes come with the following patches.
Patch 6/7
This patch changes the QEMUMachine init functions not to take a
DisplayState as an argument because is not needed any more;
In few places the graphic hardware initialization function was called
only if DisplayState was not NULL, now they are always called.
Apart from these cases, the rest are all mechanical substitutions.
Patch 7/7
This patch updates the graphic device code to use the new
graphical_console_init function.
As for the previous patch, in few places graphical_console_init was called
only if DisplayState was not NULL, now it is always called.

This patch changes the DisplayState interface adding support for
multiple frontends at the same time (sdl and vnc) and implements most
of the benefit of the shared_buf patch without the added complexity.
Currently DisplayState is managed by sdl (or vnc) and sdl (or vnc) is
also responsible for allocating the data and setting the depth.
Vga.c (or another backend) will do any necessary conversion.
The idea is to change it so that is vga.c (or another backend) together
with console.c that fully manage the DisplayState interface allocating
data and setting the depth (either 16 or 32 bit, if the guest uses a
different resolution or is in text mode, vga.c (or another backend) is
in charge of doing the conversion seamlessly).
The other idea is that DisplayState supports *multiple* frontends
like sdl and vnc; each of them can register some callbacks to be called
when a display event occurs.
The interesting changes are:
- the new structures and related functions in console.h and console.c
in particular the following functions are very helpful to manage a
DisplaySurface:
qemu_create_displaysurface
qemu_resize_displaysurface
qemu_create_displaysurface_from
qemu_free_displaysurface
- console_select and qemu_console_resize in console.c
this two functions manage multiple consoles on a single host display
- moving code around in hw/vga.c
as for the shared_buf patch this is necessary to be able to handle a dynamic
DisplaySurface bpp
- changes to vga_draw_graphic in hw/vga.c
this is the place where the DisplaySurface buffer is shared with the
videoram, when possible;
Compared to the last version the only changes are:
- do not remove support to dpy_copy in cirrus_vga
- change the name of the displaysurface handling functions

Hypervisors like KVM perform badly while doing mmio on
a loop, because it'll generate an exit on each access.
This is the case with VGA, which results in very bad
performance.
In this patch, we map the linear frame buffer as RAM,
make sure it has dirty region tracking enabled, and then
just let the region to be written.
