Let's provide a way to control the use of RAM_NORESERVE via memory
backends using the "reserve" property which defaults to true (old
behavior).
Only Linux currently supports clearing the flag (and support is checked at
runtime, depending on the setting of "/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory").
Windows and other POSIX systems will bail out with "reserve=false".
The target use case is virtio-mem, which dynamically exposes memory
inside a large, sparse memory area to the VM. This essentially allows
avoiding to set "/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory == 0") when using
virtio-mem and also supporting hugetlbfs in the future.
As really only Linux implements RAM_NORESERVE right now, let's expose
the property only with CONFIG_LINUX. Setting the property to "false"
will then only fail in corner cases -- for example on very old kernels
or when memory overcommit was completely disabled by the admin.

For consistency, change to use object id for -file and -memfd as well
with >= 4.0.
Having a consistent naming allows to migrate to different hostmem
backends.

Currently only file backed memory backend can
be created with a "share" flag in order to allow
sharing guest RAM with other processes in the host.
Add the "share" flag also to RAM Memory Backend
in order to allow remapping parts of the guest RAM
to different host virtual addresses. This is needed
by the RDMA devices in order to remap non-contiguous
QEMU virtual addresses to a contiguous virtual address range.
Moved the "share" flag to the Host Memory base class,
modified phys_mem_alloc to include the new parameter
and a new interface memory_region_init_ram_shared_nomigrate.
There are no functional changes if the new flag is not used.

Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.

When using monitor command object_add to add a memory backend whose
size is way too big to allocate memory for it, qemu just exits. In
the case we'd better give an error message and keep guest running.
The problem can be reproduced as follows:
1. run qemu
2. (monitor)object_add memory-backend-ram,size=100000G,id=ram0
