Commit 4881411136 ("migration: Always set DEVICE state") set a new DEVICE
state before completed during migration, which broke the original transition
to COLO. The migration flow for precopy has changed to:
active -> pre-switchover -> device -> completed.
This patch updates the transition state to ensure that the Pre-COLO
state corresponds to DEVICE state correctly.

In migration_remove_notifier(), g_slist_remove() will search for and
potentially remove an entry from the specified list. The return value
should be used to update the potentially-changed head pointer of the
list that was just searched (migration_state_notifiers[mode]) instead
of the migration blockers list.

migrate_set_error(s, err) stores a copy of @err in @s. The original
@err is not freed. Most callers free it immediately. Some callers
free it later, or pass it on. And some leak it. Fix those.
Perhaps migrate_set_error(s, err) should take ownership of @err. The
callers that free it immediately would become simpler, and avoid a
copy and a deallocation. The others would have to pass
error_copy(err).

One of two error messages show __func__. Drop it; it doesn't help
users, and developers can grep for the message. This also permits
de-duplicating the code to prepend to the error message.
Both error messages show a numeric error code. I doubt that's
helpful, but I'm leaving it alone.
Use error_append_hint() for explaining that some dirty bitmaps may be
lost. Polish the prose.
Don't faff around with g_clear_pointer(), it's not worth its keep
here.

Some migration tests need to be run with shmem, the rest by default use
anonymous memory.
Introduce MemType and replace use_shmem with such a enumeration. This
prepares for a 3rd type of memory to be tested for migration.
Careful readers may also already notice that MigrateStart has another field
called memory_backend, which makes the whole "memory type" definition
convoluted. That'll be merged into MemType soon in a follow up patch.
When doing this, introduce some migrate_mem_type_*() helpers to do the
work for each memory type.

The two parameters are more or less duplicated in migrate_args(). They all
describe the memory type. When one is used, the other is not.
mem_type currently uses numa parameter to specify the memory backend, while
memory_backend (the two users of such uses "-machine memory-backend=ID").
This patch merges the use of the two variables so that we always generate a
memory object string and put it into "memory_backend" variable. Now we can
drop shmem_opts parameter in the function.
Meanwhile we always use a memory-backend-* no matter which mem type is
used. This brings mem_type to be aligned with memory_backend usage, then
we stick with this as this is flexible enough.
This paves way that we merge mem_type and memory_backend in MigrateStart.
