Raphael Norwitz 27598393a2 Lift max memory slots limit imposed by vhost-user
Historically, sending all memory regions to vhost-user backends in a
single message imposed a limitation on the number of times memory
could be hot-added to a VM with a vhost-user device. Now that backends
which support the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_SLOTS send memory
regions individually, we no longer need to impose this limitation on
devices which support this feature.

With this change, VMs with a vhost-user device which supports the
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS can support a configurable
number of memory slots, up to the maximum allowed by the target
platform.

Existing backends which do not support
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS are unaffected.
