b3f7f0c5e6 COLO: Implement the process of failover for primary VM
For primary side, if COLO gets failover request from users.
To be exact, gets 'x_colo_lost_heartbeat' command.
COLO thread will exit the loop while the failover BH does the
cleanup work and resumes VM.

aef060850b COLO: Introduce state to record failover process
When handling failover, COLO processes differently according to
the different stage of failover process, here we introduce a global
atomic variable to record the status of failover.

We add four failover status to indicate the different stage of failover process.
You should use the helpers to get and set the value.

d89e666e06 COLO: Add 'x-colo-lost-heartbeat' command to trigger failover
We leave users to choose whatever heartbeat solution they want,
if the heartbeat is lost, or other errors they detect, they can use
experimental command 'x_colo_lost_heartbeat' to tell COLO to do failover,
COLO will do operations accordingly.

For example, if the command is sent to the Primary side,
the Primary side will exit COLO mode, does cleanup work,
and then, PVM will take over the service work. If sent to the Secondary side,
the Secondary side will run failover work, then takes over PVM's service work.
