linux-user: completely re-write init_guest_space
First we ensure all guest space initialisation logic comes through probe_guest_base once we understand the nature of the binary we are loading. The convoluted init_guest_space routine is removed and replaced with a number of pgb_* helpers which are called depending on what requirements we have when loading the binary. We first try to do what is requested by the host. Failing that we try and satisfy the guest requested base address. If all those options fail we fall back to finding a space in the memory map using our recently written read_self_maps() helper. There are some additional complications we try and take into account when looking for holes in the address space. We try not to go directly after the system brk() space so there is space for a little growth. We also don't want to have to use negative offsets which would result in slightly less efficient code on x86 when it's unable to use the segment offset register. Less mind-binding gotos and hopefully clearer logic throughout.
