pc: count in 1Gb hugepage alignment when sizing hotplug-memory container
if DIMMs with different size/alignment are interleaved in creation order, it could lead to hotplug-memory container fragmentation and following inability to use all RAM upto maxmem. For example: -m 4G,slots=3,maxmem=7G -object memory-backend-file,id=mem-1,size=256M,mem-path=/pagesize-2MB -device pc-dimm,id=mem1,memdev=mem-1 -object memory-backend-file,id=mem-2,size=1G,mem-path=/pagesize-1GB -device pc-dimm,id=mem2,memdev=mem-2 -object memory-backend-file,id=mem-3,size=256M,mem-path=/pagesize-2MB -device pc-dimm,id=mem3,memdev=mem-3 fragments hotplug-memory container and doesn't allow to use 1GB hugepage backend to consume remainig 1Gb. To ease managment factor count in max 1Gb alignment for each memory slot when sizing hotplug-memory region so that regadless of fragmentaion it would be possible to add max aligned DIMM.
