[PATCH v5 8/9] vfio/migration: Add migration blocker if VM memory is too large to cause unmap_bitmap failure

[Zhenzhong Duan <zhenzhong.duan@intel.com>]

With default config, kernel VFIO IOMMU type1 driver limits dirty bitmap to
256MB for unmap_bitmap ioctl so the maximum guest memory region is no more
than 8TB size for the ioctl to succeed.

Be conservative here to limit total guest memory to max value supported
by unmap_bitmap ioctl or else add a migration blocker. IOMMUFD backend
doesn't have such limit, one can use it if there is a need to migrate such
large VM.
