machine: introduce convenience MachineState::ram
the new field will be used by boards to get access to main
RAM memory region and will help to save boiler plate in
boards which often introduce a field or variable just for
this purpose.
Memory region will be equivalent to what currently used
memory_region_allocate_system_memory() is returning apart
from that it will come from hostmem backend.
Followup patches will incrementally switch boards to using
RAM from MachineState::ram.
Patch takes care of non-NUMA case and follow up patch will
initialize MachineState::ram for NUMA case.
