c8df4a7aef migration: Split save_live_pending() into state_pending_*
We split the function into to:

- state_pending_estimate: We estimate the remaining state size without
  stopping the machine.

- state pending_exact: We calculate the exact amount of remaining
  state.

The only "device" that implements different functions for _estimate()
and _exact() is ram.
