This patch allow to hotplug memory dimm modules
though a new option : dimm_memory

The dimm modules are generated from a map

     dimmid       size  dimm_memory
     dimm0        128        128     100.00 0

    ....

   dimm254      16384    1028096       1.59 2
   dimm255      16384    1044480       1.57 3

max dimm_memory size is 1TB.
If the dimm_memory value is not aligned on memory module, we align the dimm_memory on the next module.

vmid.conf
---------
memory: 1024
maxmemory: 8192
dimm_memory: 1028

total running memory is : memory + dimm_memory.

dimm_memory is not seen by os at start, so need to have "memory" enough big to load kernel

hotplug
----
qm set <vmid> -dimm_memory X    (where X is bigger than current value)

unplug (not yet implemented in qemu)
------
qm set <vmid> -delete dimm_memory
qm set <vmid> -dimm_memory X  (where X is lower than current value)

linux guest
-----------
-acpi hotplug module should be loaded in guest
-need a recent kernel. (tested with 3.10)

can be enable automaticaly, adding:

/lib/udev/rules.d/80-hotplug-cpu-mem.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ACTION=="add", TEST=="online", ATTR{online}=="0", \
 ATTR{online}="1"

SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", TEST=="state", ATTR{state}=="offline", \
 ATTR{state}="online"

windows guest
-------------
windows guest need numa:1 (windows limitation)

tested with:

- windows 2012 standard
- windows 2008 enterprise/datacenter
