This change introduces support for preallocated shared file descriptor based memory backing.

It  allows vhost-user to be used without hugepages. This is achieved by introducing 3 new sub elements to the memoryBacking element: source, access & allocation which will configure qemu commandline during VM startup accordingly.



First patch adds parsing of elements and storing the values in mem structure.

Second patch configures the qemu commandline on the base of values in mem structure.
