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.

There are no longer any VMStateDescription structs in the tree which
use the load_state_old support for custom handling of incoming
migration from very old QEMU. Remove the mechanism entirely.
This includes removing one stray useless setting of
minimum_version_id_old in a VMStateDescription with no load_state_old
function, which crept in after the global weeding-out of them in
commit 17e3134061.

In rST markup, single backticks `like this` represent "interpreted
text", which can be handled as a bunch of different things if tagged
with a specific "role":
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#interpreted-text
(the most common one for us is "reference to a URL, which gets
hyperlinked").
The default "role" if none is specified is "title_reference",
intended for references to book or article titles, and it renders
into the HTML as <cite>...</cite> (usually comes out as italics).
To format a literal (generally rendered as fixed-width font),
double-backticks are required.
Mostly migration.rst gets this right, but some places incorrectly use
single backticks where double backticks were intended; correct them.

The generic 'migrate_set_parameters' command handle all types of param.
Only the QMP commands were documented in the deprecations page, but the
rationale for deprecating applies equally to HMP, and the replacements
exist. Furthermore the HMP commands are just shims to the QMP commands,
so removing the latter breaks the former unless they get re-implemented.

In some cases it may be helpful to modify state before saving it for
migration, and then modify the state back after it has been saved. The
existing pre_save function provides half of this functionality. This
patch adds a post_save function to provide the second half.

Add a new flag to mark memory region that are used as non-volatile, by
NVDIMM for example. That bit is propagated down to the flat view, and
reflected in HMP info mtree with a "nv-" prefix on the memory type.
This way, guest_phys_blocks_region_add() can skip the NV memory
regions for dumps and TCG memory clear in a following patch.
