The bulk stage is kind of weird: migration_bitmap_find_dirty() will
indicate a dirty page, however, ram_save_host_page() will never save it, as
migration_bitmap_clear_dirty() detects that it is not dirty.
We already fill the bitmap in ram_list_init_bitmaps() with ones, marking
everything dirty - it didn't used to be that way, which is why we needed
an explicit first bulk stage.
Let's simplify: make the bitmap the single source of thuth. Explicitly
handle the "xbzrle_enabled after first round" case.
Regarding XBZRLE (implicitly handled via "ram_bulk_stage = false" right
now), there is now a slight change in behavior:
- Colo: When starting, it will be disabled (was implicitly enabled)
until the first round actually finishes.
- Free page hinting: When starting, XBZRLE will be disabled (was implicitly
enabled) until the first round actually finished.
- Snapshots: When starting, XBZRLE will be disabled. We essentially only
do a single run, so I guess it will never actually get disabled.
Postcopy seems to indirectly disable it in ram_save_page(), so there
shouldn't be really any change.

Make qemu_start_incoming_migration local to migration/migration.c.
By using the runstate instead of a separate flag, vl need not do
anything to setup deferred incoming migration.
qmp_migrate_incoming also does not need the deferred_incoming flag
anymore, because "-incoming PROTOCOL" will clear the "once" flag
before the main loop starts. Therefore, later invocations of
the migrate-incoming command will fail with the existing
"The incoming migration has already been started" error message.

The only remaining special case is postcopy. It cannot handle
concurrent discards yet, which would result in requesting already sent
pages from the source. Special-case it in virtio-balloon instead.
Introduce migration_in_incoming_postcopy(), to find out if incoming
postcopy is active.

This patch adds the free page optimization enable flag, and a function
to set this flag. When the free page optimization is enabled, not all
the pages are needed to be sent in the bulk stage.
Why using a new flag, instead of directly disabling ram_bulk_stage when
the optimization is running?
Thanks for Peter Xu's reminder that disabling ram_bulk_stage will affect
the use of compression. Please see save_page_use_compression. When
xbzrle and compression are used, if free page optimizaion causes the
ram_bulk_stage to be disabled, save_page_use_compression will return
false, which disables the use of compression. That is, if free page
optimization avoids the sending of half of the guest pages, the other
half of pages loses the benefits of compression in the meantime. Using a
new flag to let migration_bitmap_find_dirty skip the free pages in the
bulk stage will avoid the above issue.

Currently we cleanup the migration object as we exit main after the
main_loop finishes; however if there's a migration running things
get messy and we can end up with the migration thread still trying
to access freed structures.
We now take a ref to the object around the migration thread itself,
so the act of dropping the ref during exit doesn't cause us to lose
the state until the thread quits.
Cancelling the migration during migration also tries to get the thread
to quit.
We do this a bit earlier; so hopefully migration gets out of the way
before all the devices etc are freed.

Switch the announcements to using the new announce timer.
Move the code that does it to announce.c rather than savevm
because it really has nothing to do with the actual migration.
Migration starts the announce from bh's and so they're all
in the main thread/bql, and so there's never any racing with

If destination qemu is already containing a dirty bitmap with the same name
as a migrated bitmap (for the same node), then, if their granularities are
the same the migration will be done, otherwise the error will be generated.
If destination qemu doesn't contain such bitmap it will be created.

Let the old man "MigrationState" join the object family. Direct benefit
is that we can start to use all the property features derived from
current QDev, like: HW_COMPAT_* bits, command line setup for migration
parameters (so will never need to set them up each time using HMP/QMP,
this is really, really attractive for test writters), etc.
I see no reason to disallow this happen yet. So let's start from this
one, to see whether it would be anything good.
Now we init the MigrationState struct statically in main() to make sure
it's initialized after global properties are applied, since we'll use
them during creation of the object.
No functional change at all.
