Now that we have a working qemu_ram_free() and the primary runtime
user of it has been updated, don't be lenient about duplicate id strings.
We also shouldn't need to create them ondemand at the target.

Allows us to compress the protocol a bit by setting a flag on the
offset which indicates we're still working within the same block
as last time. That way we can avoid sending the block name for
every page. Suggested by Anthony Liguori.

We don't want to assume a contiguous address space, so migrate based
on RAM blocks instead of a fixed linear address map. This will allow
us to have holes in the ram_addr_t namespace, so we can implement
qemu_ram_free().

Synchronize RAM blocks with the target and migrate using name/offset
pairs. This ensures both source and target have the same view of
RAM and that we get the right bits into the right slot.

We currently need this either to allocate the next ram_addr_t for a
new block, or for total memory to be migrated. Both of which we can
calculate without need of this to keep us in a contiguous address space.

This makes the RAM block list easier to manipulate. Also incorporate
relevant variables into the RAMList struct.

When a page with all identical bytes is transferred, it is counted
as a full page (TARGET_PAGE_SIZE) although only one byte is actually
sent. Fix this by changing ram_save_block() to return the number of
bytes sent instead of a boolean value. This makes bandwidth
estimation, and consequently downtime estimation, more precise.

Move target specific functions and RAM handling to arch_init.c.
Add a flag to QEMUOptions structure to indicate for which
architectures the option is allowed, check the flag
in run time and remove conditional code in option handling.
Now that no target dependencies remain, compile vl.c only once
for all targets.
