[PATCH v1] introduce dirty ring size for guestperf tool

v1:
-original version sent by accident, send the right patch

Dirtylimit implementation has been reviewed in the past few months, if
things go well, it will be merged in the near future, which is the first
step to implement a new live migration feature. For more details refer to: 
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/cover.1646247968.git.huangy81@chinatelecom.cn/

The second step is to implement the "dirtylimit" capability of live
migration basing on the implementation in first step, and the main
logic is almost done, refer to: 
https://github.com/newfriday/qemu/commits/migration_dirtylimit_v1

Since "dirtylimit" capability of live migration is basing on dirty
ring, so if we want compare live migration used "dirtylimit" capability 
with other capabilities such as "auto-converge" in performance, set
dirty ring size when start vm using guestperf tool is an convenient way.

So let's introduce dirty ring size for guestperf tool.

[PATCH v1] tests/migration: Introduce dirty-ring-size option into guestperf

[huangy81]

From: Hyman Huang(黄勇) <huangy81@chinatelecom.cn>

Guestperf tool does not enable diry ring feature when test
migration by default.

To support dirty ring migration performance test, introduce
dirty-ring-size option into guestperf tools, which ranges in
[1024, 65536].

To set dirty ring size with 4096 during migration test:
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf.py --dirty-ring-size 4096 xxx
