loader: store FW CFG ROM files in RAM
RAM MRs including ROM files in FW CFGs are created
and named using the file basename.
This becomes problematic if these names are
supplied by user, since the basename might not
be unique.
There are two cases we care about:
- option-rom flag.
- option ROM for devices. This triggers e.g. when
using rombar=0.
At the moment we get an assert. E.g
qemu -option-rom /usr/share/ipxe/8086100e.rom -option-rom
/usr/share/ipxe.efi/8086100e.rom
RAMBlock "/rom@genroms/8086100e.rom" already registered, abort!
This is a regression from 1.6.
For now let's keep it simple and just avoid creating the
MRs in case of option ROMs.
when using 1.7 machine types, enable
option ROMs in RAM to match that version.

we put copy of ROMs in MR for migration.
but the name rom_in_ram makes one think we
load it in guest RAM.
Rename has_mr to make intent clearer.

The existing load_elf() just returns -1 if it fails to load ELF. However
it could be smarter than this and tell more about the failure such as
wrong endianness or incompatible platform.
This adds additional return codes for wrong architecture, wrong
endianness and if the image is not ELF at all.
This adds a load_elf_strerror() helper to convert return codes into
string messages.
This fixes handling of what load_elf() returns for s390x, other
callers just check the return value for <0 and this remains unchanged.

We use the rom infrastructure to write firmware and/or initial kernel
blobs into guest address space. So we're basically emulating the cache
off phase on very early system bootup.
That phase is usually responsible for clearing the instruction cache for
anything it writes into cachable memory, to ensure that after reboot we
don't happen to execute stale bits from the instruction cache.
So we need to invalidate the icache every time we write a rom into guest
address space. We do not need to do this for every DMA since the guest
expects it has to flush the icache manually in that case.
This fixes random reboot issues on e5500 (booke ppc) for me.

Support ROM blobs not mapped into guest memory:
same as ROM files really but use caller's buffer.
Support invoking callback on access and
return memory pointer making it easier
for caller to update memory if necessary.

ROM files that are put in FW CFG are copied to guest ram, by BIOS, but
they are not backed by RAM so they don't get migrated.
Each time we change two bytes in such a ROM this breaks cross-version
migration: since we can migrate after BIOS has read the first byte but
before it has read the second one, getting an inconsistent state.
Future-proof this by creating, for each such ROM,
an MR serving as the backing store.
This MR is never mapped into guest memory, but it's registered
as RAM so it's migrated with the guest.
Naturally, this only helps for -M 1.7 and up, older machine types
will still have the cross-version migration bug.
Luckily the race window for the problem to trigger is very small,
which is also likely why we didn't notice the cross-version
migration bug in testing yet.

This patch fixes a bug in rom_copy introduced by
commit d60fa42e8b.
rom_copy failed to load roms with a "datasize" of 0.
As a result, multiboot kernels were not loaded correctly
when they contain a segment with a "file size" of 0.

Introduce 'load_ramdisk()' which can load "normal" ramdisks and ramdisks
with a u-boot header.
To enable this and leverage synergies 'load_uimage()' is refactored to
accomodate this additional use case.

Add ref/unref calls at the following places:
- places where memory regions are stashed by a listener and
used outside the BQL (including in Xen or KVM).
- memory_region_find callsites
- creation of aliases and containers (only the aliased/contained
region gets a reference to avoid loops)
- around calls to del_subregion/add_subregion, where the region
could disappear after the first call

So far, the size of all regions passed to listeners could fit in 64 bits,
because artificial regions (containers and aliases) are eliminated by
the memory core, leaving only device regions which have reasonable sizes
An IOMMU however cannot be eliminated by the memory core, and may have
an artificial size, hence we may need 65 bits to represent its size.
