c517076dae Add API to get memory mapping
Add API to get all virtual address and physical address mapping.
If the guest doesn't use paging, the virtual address is equal to the phyical
address. The virtual address and physical address mapping is for gdb's user, and
it does not include the memory that is not referenced by the page table. So if
you want to use crash to anaylze the vmcore, please do not specify -p option.
the reason why the -p option is not default explicitly: guest machine in a
catastrophic state can have corrupted memory, which we cannot trust.

fae001f551 implement cpu_get_memory_mapping()
Walk cpu's page table and collect all virtual address and physical address mapping.
Then, add these mapping into memory mapping list. If the guest does not use paging,
it will do nothing. Note: the I/O memory will be skipped.

80167a8a31 Add API to create memory mapping list
The memory mapping list stores virtual address and physical address mapping.
The virtual address and physical address are contiguous in the mapping.
The folloing patch will use this information to create PT_LOAD in the vmcore.
