767adce2d9 savevm: Ignore minimum_version_id_old if there is no load_state_old
At the moment we require vmstate definitions to set minimum_version_id_old
to the same value as minimum_version_id if they do not provide a
load_state_old handler. Since the load_state_old functionality is
required only for a handful of devices that need to retain migration
compatibility with a pre-vmstate implementation, this means the bulk
of devices have pointless boilerplate. Relax the definition so that
minimum_version_id_old is ignored if there is no load_state_old handler.

Note that under the old scheme we would segfault if the vmstate
specified a minimum_version_id_old that was less than minimum_version_id
but did not provide a load_state_old function, and the incoming state
specified a version number between minimum_version_id_old and
minimum_version_id. Under the new scheme this will just result in
our failing the migration.

1964a39706 migration: move rate limiting to QEMUFile
Rate limiting is now simply a byte counter; client call
qemu_file_rate_limit() manually to determine if they have to exit.
So it is possible and simple to move the functionality to QEMUFile.

This makes the remaining functionality of s->file redundant;
in the next patch we can remove it and write directly to s->migration_file.
