This patch adds the free page optimization enable flag, and a function to set this flag. When the free page optimization is enabled, not all the pages are needed to be sent in the bulk stage. Why using a new flag, instead of directly disabling ram_bulk_stage when the optimization is running? Thanks for Peter Xu's reminder that disabling ram_bulk_stage will affect the use of compression. Please see save_page_use_compression. When xbzrle and compression are used, if free page optimizaion causes the ram_bulk_stage to be disabled, save_page_use_compression will return false, which disables the use of compression. That is, if free page optimization avoids the sending of half of the guest pages, the other half of pages loses the benefits of compression in the meantime. Using a new flag to let migration_bitmap_find_dirty skip the free pages in the bulk stage will avoid the above issue.
