machine: introduce convenience MachineState::ram
the new field will be used by boards to get access to main RAM memory region and will help to save boiler plate in boards which often introduce a field or variable just for this purpose. Memory region will be equivalent to what currently used memory_region_allocate_system_memory() is returning apart from that it will come from hostmem backend. Followup patches will incrementally switch boards to using RAM from MachineState::ram. Patch takes care of non-NUMA case and follow up patch will initialize MachineState::ram for NUMA case.
