Currently, when using "nvme://" for a block device, like
-drive file=nvme://0000:01:00.0/1,if=none,id=drive0 \
-device virtio-blk,drive=drive0 \
VFIO may pin all guest memory, and discarding of RAM no longer works as
expected. I was able to reproduce this easily with my
01:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd
NVMe SSD Controller SM981/PM981/PM983
Similar to common VFIO, we have to disable it, making sure that:
a) virtio-balloon won't discard any memory ("silently disabled")
b) virtio-mem and nvme:// run mutually exclusive

Currently, qemu_ram_foreach_* calls RAMBlockIterFunc with many
block-specific arguments. But often iter func needs RAMBlock*.
This refactoring is needed for fast access to RAMBlock flags from
qemu_ram_foreach_block's callback. The only way to achieve this now
is to call qemu_ram_block_from_host (which also enumerates blocks).
So, this patch reduces complexity of
qemu_ram_foreach_block() -> cb() -> qemu_ram_block_from_host()
from O(n^2) to O(n).
Fix RAMBlockIterFunc definition and add some functions to read
RAMBlock* fields witch were passed.

These functions will be wanted by block-obj-y but the actual definition
is in obj-y, so stub them to keep the linker happy.
