memory: add support getting and using a dirty bitmap copy.

This patch adds support for getting and using a local copy of the dirty
bitmap.

memory_region_snapshot_and_clear_dirty() will create a snapshot of the
dirty bitmap for the specified range, clear the dirty bitmap and return
the copy.  The returned bitmap can be a bit larger than requested, the
range is expanded so the code can copy unsigned longs from the bitmap
and avoid atomic bit update operations.

memory_region_snapshot_get_dirty() will return the dirty status of
pages, pretty much like memory_region_get_dirty(), but using the copy
returned by memory_region_copy_and_clear_dirty().
