softmmu/physmem: Extend ram_block_discard_(require|disable) by two discard types
We want to separate the two cases whereby we discard ram - uncoordinated: e.g., virito-balloon - coordinated: e.g., virtio-mem coordinated via the RamDiscardManager Reviewed-by: Pankaj Gupta <pankaj.gupta@cloud.ionos.com> Acked-by: Michael S.
