migration: Maintain postcopy faulted addresses

Browse source 
Maintain a list of faulted addresses on the destination host for which we're
waiting on.  This is implemented using a GTree rather than a real list to make
sure even there're plenty of vCPUs/threads that are faulting, the lookup will
still be fast with O(log(N)) (because we'll do that after placing each page).
It should bring a slight overhead, but ideally that shouldn't be a big problem
simply because in most cases the requested page list will be short.

Actually we did similar things for postcopy blocktime measurements.  This patch
didn't use that simply because:

  (1) blocktime measurement is towards vcpu threads only, but here we need to
      record all faulted addresses, including main thread and external
      thread (like, DPDK via vhost-user).

  (2) blocktime measurement will require UFFD_FEATURE_THREAD_ID, but here we
      don't want to add that extra dependency on the kernel version since not
      necessary.  E.g., we don't need to know which thread faulted on which
      page, we also don't care about multiple threads faulting on the same
      page.  But we only care about what addresses are faulted so waiting for a
      page copying from src.

  (3) blocktime measurement is not enabled by default.  However we need this by
      default especially for postcopy recover.

Another thing to mention is that this patch introduced a new mutex to serialize
the receivedmap and the page_requested tree, however that serialization does
not cover other procedures like UFFDIO_COPY.
