QMP query-dump-guest-memory-capability reports win dump as available for
any x86 VM, which is false.
This patch implements proper query of vmcoreinfo and calculation of
guest note size. Based on that we can surely report whether win dump
available or not.
To perform this I suggest to split dump_init() into dump_preinit() and
dump_init_complete() to avoid exausting copypaste in
win_dump_available().
Also dump_state_prepare() and dump_cleanup() were modified to avoid
unsafe close on fd == 0. Thus, it is initialized to -1.
For further reference one may review this libvirt discussion:
