memory-device: Add get_min_alignment() callback
Add a callback that can be used to express additional alignment requirements (exceeding the ones from the memory region). Will be used by virtio-mem to express special alignment requirements due to manually configured, big block sizes (e.g., 1GB with an ordinary memory-backend-ram). This avoids failing later when realizing, because auto-detection wasn't able to assign a properly aligned address. Reviewed-by: Pankaj Gupta <pankaj.gupta.linux@gmail.com> Cc: "Michael S.
