memory: learn about non-volatile memory region

Add a new flag to mark memory region that are used as non-volatile, by
NVDIMM for example. That bit is propagated down to the flat view, and
reflected in HMP info mtree with a "nv-" prefix on the memory type.

This way, guest_phys_blocks_region_add() can skip the NV memory
regions for dumps and TCG memory clear in a following patch.
