Historically, sending all memory regions to vhost-user backends in a
single message imposed a limitation on the number of times memory
could be hot-added to a VM with a vhost-user device. Now that backends
which support the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_SLOTS send memory
regions individually, we no longer need to impose this limitation on
devices which support this feature.
With this change, VMs with a vhost-user device which supports the
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS can support a configurable
number of memory slots, up to the maximum allowed by the target
platform.
Existing backends which do not support
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS are unaffected.

With this change, when the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS
protocol feature has been negotiated, Qemu no longer sends the backend
all the memory regions in a single message. Rather, when the memory
tables are set or updated, a series of VHOST_USER_ADD_MEM_REG and
VHOST_USER_REM_MEM_REG messages are sent to transmit the regions to map
and/or unmap instead of sending send all the regions in one fixed size
VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE message.
The vhost_user struct maintains a shadow state of the VM’s memory
regions. When the memory tables are modified, the
vhost_user_set_mem_table() function compares the new device memory state
to the shadow state and only sends regions which need to be unmapped or
mapped in. The regions which must be unmapped are sent first, followed
by the new regions to be mapped in. After all the messages have been
sent, the shadow state is set to the current virtual device state.
Existing backends which do not support
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS are unaffected.

This change introduces a new feature to the vhost-user protocol allowing
a backend device to specify the maximum number of ram slots it supports.
At this point, the value returned by the backend will be capped at the
maximum number of ram slots which can be supported by vhost-user, which
is currently set to 8 because of underlying protocol limitations.
The returned value will be stored inside the VhostUserState struct so
that on device reconnect we can verify that the ram slot limitation
has not decreased since the last time the device connected.

Make it easier to copy all the persistent bitmaps of (the top layer
of) a source image along with its guest-visible contents, by adding a
boolean flag for use with qemu-img convert. This is basically
shorthand, as the same effect could be accomplished with a series of
'qemu-img bitmap --add' and 'qemu-img bitmap --merge -b source'
commands, or by their corresponding QMP commands.
Note that this command will fail in the same scenarios where 'qemu-img
measure' omits a 'bitmaps size:' line, namely, when either the source
or the destination lacks persistent bitmap support altogether.

It's useful to know how much space can be occupied by qcow2 persistent
bitmaps, even though such metadata is unrelated to the guest-visible
data. Report this value as an additional QMP field, present when
measuring an existing image and output format that both support
bitmaps. Update iotest 178 and 190 to updated output, as well as new
coverage in 190 demonstrating non-zero values made possible with the
recently-added qemu-img bitmap command (see 3b51ab4b).
The new 'bitmaps size:' field is displayed automatically as part of
'qemu-img measure' any time it is present in QMP (that is, any time
both the source image being measured and destination format support
bitmaps, even if the measurement is 0 because there are no bitmaps
present). If the field is absent, it means that no bitmaps can be
copied (source, destination, or both lack bitmaps, including when
measuring based on size rather than on a source image). This behavior
is compatible with an upcoming patch adding 'qemu-img convert
--bitmaps': that command will fail in the same situations where this
patch omits the field.
The addition of a new field demonstrates why we should always
zero-initialize qapi C structs; while the qcow2 driver still fully
populates all fields, the raw and crypto drivers had to be tweaked to
avoid uninitialized data.
Consideration was also given towards having a 'qemu-img measure
--bitmaps' which errors out when bitmaps are not possible, and
otherwise sums the bitmaps into the existing allocation totals rather
than displaying as a separate field, as a potential convenience
factor. But this was ultimately decided to be more complexity than
necessary when the QMP interface was sufficient enough with bitmaps
remaining a separate field.

Include actions for --add, --remove, --clear, --enable, --disable, and
--merge (note that --clear is a bit of fluff, because the same can be
accomplished by removing a bitmap and then adding a new one in its
place, but it matches what QMP commands exist). Listing is omitted,
because it does not require a bitmap name and because it was already
possible with 'qemu-img info'. A single command line can play one or
more bitmap commands in sequence on the same bitmap name (although all
added bitmaps share the same granularity, and and all merged bitmaps
come from the same source file). Merge defaults to other bitmaps in
the primary image, but can also be told to merge bitmaps from a
distinct image.
While this supports --image-opts for the file being modified, I did
not think it worth the extra complexity to support that for the source
file in a cross-file merges. Likewise, I chose to have --merge only
take a single source rather than following the QMP support for
multiple merges in one go (although you can still use more than one
--merge in the command line); in part because qemu-img is offline and
therefore atomicity is not an issue.
Upcoming patches will add iotest coverage of these commands while
also testing other features.

The Linux kernel has dropped support for allowing 32-bit Arm systems
to host KVM guests (kernel commit 541ad0150ca4aa663a2, which just
landed upstream in the 5.7 merge window). Mark QEMU's support for
this configuration as deprecated, so that we can delete that support
code in 5.2.

Versions of Sphinx older than 1.6 can't build all of our documentation,
because they are too picky about the syntax of the argument to the
option:: directive; see Sphinx bugs #646, #3366:
https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/646https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/3366
Trying to build with a 1.4.x Sphinx fails with
docs/system/images.rst:4: SEVERE: Duplicate ID: "cmdoption-qcow2-arg-encrypt"
and a 1.5.x Sphinx fails with
docs/system/invocation.rst:544: WARNING: Malformed option description '[enable=]PATTERN', should look like "opt", "-opt
args", "--opt args", "/opt args" or "+opt args"
Update our needs_sphinx setting to indicate that we require at least
1.6. This will allow configure to fall back to "don't build the
docs" rather than causing the build to fail entirely, which is
probably what most users building on a host old enough to have such
an old Sphinx would want; if they do want the docs then they'll have
a useful indication of what they need to do (upgrade Sphinx!) rather
than a confusing error message.
In theory our distro support policy would suggest that we should
support building on the Sphinx shipped in those distros, but:
* EPEL7 has Sphinx 1.2.3 (which we've never supported!)
* Debian Stretch has Sphinx 1.4.8
Trying to get our docs to work with Sphinx 1.4 is not tractable
for the 5.0 release and I'm not sure it's worthwhile effort anyway;
at least with this change the build as a whole now succeeds.
Thanks to John Snow for doing the investigation and testing to
confirm what Sphinx versions fail in what ways and what distros
shipped what.

The kernel-doc Sphinx plugin and associated script currently emit
'c:type' directives for "struct foo" documentation.
Sphinx 3.0 warns about this:
/home/petmay01/linaro/qemu-from-laptop/qemu/docs/../include/exec/memory.h:3: WARNING: Type must be either just a name or a typedef-like declaration.
If just a name:
Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name, got keyword: struct [error at 6]
struct MemoryListener
------^
If typedef-like declaration:
Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 21]
struct MemoryListener
---------------------^
because it wants us to use the new-in-3.0 'c:struct' instead.
Plumb the Sphinx version through to the kernel-doc script
and use it to select 'c:struct' for newer versions than 3.0.

The documentation of our -s and -gdb options is quite old; in
particular it still claims that it will cause QEMU to stop and wait
for the gdb connection, when this has not been true for some time:
you also need to pass -S if you want to make QEMU not launch the
guest on startup.
Improve the documentation to mention this requirement in the
executable's --help output, the documentation of the -gdb option in
the manual, and in the "GDB usage" chapter.
Includes some minor tweaks to these paragraphs of documentation
since I was editing them anyway (such as dropping the description
of our gdb support as "primitive").

Some of the constraints on operand sizes have been relaxed, so adjust the
documentation.
Deprecate atomic_mb_read and atomic_mb_set; it is not really possible to
use them correctly because they do not interoperate with sequentially-consistent
RMW operations.
Finally, extend the memory barrier pairing section to cover acquire and
release semantics in general, roughly based on the KVM Forum 2016 talk,
"<atomic.h> weapons".

Raise ConfigError rather than VersionRequirementError when we detect
that the Python being used by Sphinx is too old.
Currently the way we flag the Python version problem up to the user
causes Sphinx to print an unnecessary Python stack trace as well as
the information about the problem; in most versions of Sphinx this is
unavoidable.
The upstream Sphinx developers kindly added a feature to allow
conf.py to report errors to the user without the backtrace:
be608ca231
but the exception type they chose for this was ConfigError.
Switch to ConfigError, which won't make any difference with currently
deployed Sphinx versions, but will be prettier one day when the user
is using a Sphinx version with the new feature.

The feature table is supposed to advertise the name of all feature
bits that we support; however, we forgot to update the table for
autoclear bits. While at it, move the table to read-only memory in
code, and tweak the qcow2 spec to name the second autoclear bit.
Update iotests that are affected by the longer header length.
