Add target memory mapping API (Avi Kivity)

Devices accessing large amounts of memory (as with DMA) will wish to obtain
a pointer to guest memory rather than access it indirectly via
cpu_physical_memory_rw().  Add a new API to convert target addresses to
host pointers.

In case the target address does not correspond to RAM, a bounce buffer is
allocated.  To prevent the guest from causing the host to allocate unbounded
amounts of bounce buffer, this memory is limited (currently to one page).
