kvm: Persistent per kvmslot dirty bitmap
When synchronizing dirty bitmap from kernel KVM we do it in a
per-kvmslot fashion and we allocate the userspace bitmap for each of
the ioctl. This patch instead make the bitmap cache be persistent
then we don't need to g_malloc0() every time.
More importantly, the cached per-kvmslot dirty bitmap will be further
used when we want to add support for the KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG and this
cached bitmap will be used to guarantee we won't clear any unknown
dirty bits otherwise that can be a severe data loss issue for
migration code.
