There are few helpers already to support array migration. However they all
require the destination side to preallocate arrays before migration which
is not always possible due to unknown array size as it might be some
sort of dynamic state. One of the examples is an array of MSIX-enabled
devices in SPAPR PHB - this array may vary from 0 to 65536 entries and
its size depends on guest's ability to enable MSIX or do PCI hotplug.
This adds new VMSTATE_VARRAY_STRUCT_ALLOC macro which is pretty similar to
VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_POINTER_INT32 but it can alloc memory for migratign
array on the destination side.
This defines VMS_ALLOC flag for a field.
This changes vmstate_base_addr() to do the allocation when receiving
migration.

This commit adds a new command, '-dump-vmstate', that takes a filename
as an argument. When executed, QEMU will dump the vmstate information
for the machine type it's invoked with to the file, and quit.
The JSON-format output can then be used to compare the vmstate info for
different QEMU versions, specifically to test whether live migration
would break due to changes in the vmstate data.
A Python script that compares the output of such JSON dumps is included
in the following commit.

Make qemu_peek_buffer repeatedly call fill_buffer until it gets

At the moment, qemu_peek_buffer will try one qemu_fill_buffer if there

This capability allows you to disable dynamic chunk registration
for better throughput on high-performance links.
For example, using an 8GB RAM virtual machine with all 8GB of memory in
active use and the VM itself is completely idle using a 40 gbps infiniband link:
1. x-rdma-pin-all disabled total time: approximately 7.5 seconds @ 9.5 Gbps
2. x-rdma-pin-all enabled total time: approximately 4 seconds @ 26 Gbps
These numbers would of course scale up to whatever size virtual machine
you have to migrate using RDMA.
Enabling this feature does *not* have any measurable affect on
migration *downtime*. This is because, without this feature, all of the
memory will have already been registered already in advance during
the bulk round and does not need to be re-registered during the successive
iteration rounds.
