qemu-ga: add guest-fstrim command

FITRIM is a mounted filesystem feature to discard (or "trim") blocks which
are not in use by the filesystem. This is useful for solid-state drives
(SSDs) and thinly-provisioned storage.  Provide access to the feature
from the host so that filesystems can be trimmed periodically or before
migration.

Here is an example using scsi_debug:

    # modprobe scsi_debug lbpu=1 lbpws=1
    # sg_vpd -p0xb2 /dev/sdb
    Logical block provisioning VPD page (SBC):
      Unmap command supported (LBPU): 1
      Write same (16) with unmap bit supported (LBWS): 1
      Write same (10) with unmap bit supported (LBWS10): 0
    # mke2fs /dev/sdb
    # cat /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/map
    1-616,16257-16383
    # mount /dev/sdb /run/media/pbonzini/test
    # dd if=/dev/zero of=/run/media/pbonzini/test/file
    # cat map
    1-616,645-1588,1599-4026,4029-16383
    # rm /run/media/pbonzini/test/file
    # ./qemu-ga /dev/fd/0
    {"execute":"guest-fstrim"}
    {"return": {}}
    # cat map
    1-612
