Commit a1b18df9a4 moved -m option parsing after configure_accelerators()
that broke TCG accelerator initialization which accesses global ram_size
from size_code_gen_buffer() which is equal to 0 at that moment.
Partially revert a1b18df9a4, by returning set_memory_options() to its
original location and only keep 32-bit host VA check and 'memory-backend'
size check introduced by fe64d06afc at current place.

This series removes ad hoc RAM allocation API (memory_region_allocate_system_memory)
and consolidates it around hostmem backend. It allows to
* resolve conflicts between global -mem-prealloc and hostmem's "policy" option,
fixing premature allocation before binding policy is applied
* simplify complicated memory allocation routines which had to deal with 2 ways
to allocate RAM.
* reuse hostmem backends of a choice for main RAM without adding extra CLI
options to duplicate hostmem features. A recent case was -mem-shared, to
enable vhost-user on targets that don't support hostmem backends [1] (ex: s390)
* move RAM allocation from individual boards into generic machine code and
provide them with prepared MemoryRegion.
* clean up deprecated NUMA features which were tied to the old API (see patches)
- "numa: remove deprecated -mem-path fallback to anonymous RAM"
- (POSTPONED, waiting on libvirt side) "forbid '-numa node,mem' for 5.0 and newer machine types"
- (POSTPONED) "numa: remove deprecated implicit RAM distribution between nodes"
Introduce a new machine.memory-backend property and wrapper code that aliases
global -mem-path and -mem-alloc into automatically created hostmem backend
properties (provided memory-backend was not set explicitly given by user).
A bulk of trivial patches then follow to incrementally convert individual
boards to using machine.memory-backend provided MemoryRegion.
Board conversion typically involves:
* providing MachineClass::default_ram_size and MachineClass::default_ram_id
so generic code could create default backend if user didn't explicitly provide
memory-backend or -m options
* dropping memory_region_allocate_system_memory() call
* using convenience MachineState::ram MemoryRegion, which points to MemoryRegion
allocated by ram-memdev
On top of that for some boards:
* missing ram_size checks are added (typically it were boards with fixed ram size)
* ram_size fixups are replaced by checks and hard errors, forcing user to
provide correct "-m" values instead of ignoring it and continuing running.
After all boards are converted, the old API is removed and memory allocation
routines are cleaned up.
The qtest-based fuzzer makes use of forking to reset-state between
tests. Keep the callback enabled, so the call_rcu thread gets created
within the child process.

A program might rely on functions implemented in vl.c, but implement its
own main(). By placing main into a separate source file, there are no
complaints about duplicate main()s when linking against vl.o. For
example, the virtual-device fuzzer uses a main() provided by libfuzzer,
and needs to perform some initialization before running the softmmu
initialization. Now, main simply calls three vl.c functions which
handle the guest initialization, main loop and cleanup.

Move vl.c to a separate directory, similar to linux-user/
Update the chechpatch and get_maintainer scripts, since they relied on
/vl.c for top_of_tree checks.
