Add ballooning infrastructure.
Balloon devices allow you to ask the guest to allocate memory. This allows you to release that memory. It's mostly useful for freeing up large chunks of memory from cooperative guests. Ballooning is supported by both Xen and VirtIO. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@5873 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162
