qxl: add optinal 64bit vram bar
This patch adds an 64bit pci bar for vram. It is turned off by default. It can be enabled by setting the size of the 64bit bar to be larger than the 32bit bar. Both 32bit and 64bit bar refer to the same memory. Only the first part of the memory is available via 32bit bar. The intention is to allow large vram sizes for 64bit guests, by allowing the vram bar being mapped above 4G, so we don't have to squeeze it into the pci I/O window below 4G. With vram_size_mb=16 and vram64_size_mb=256 it looks like this: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Red Hat, Inc.
