libxl: Convert E820_UNUSABLE and E820_RAM to E820_UNUSABLE as appropriate.
Most machines after the RAM regions in the e802 have a couple of
E820_RESERVED, with E820_ACPI and E820_NVS. On some Intel machines, the
E820 looks like swiss cheese:
(XEN) Initial Xen-e820 RAM map:

(XEN) 000000009f800000 - 00000000a0000000 (reserved)

Which means we have to pay attention to the E820_RAM that are
between the E820_[ACPI,NVS,RESERVED]. If we remove those
E820_RAM (b/c the amount of memory passed to the guest
is less that where those E820 regions reside) from the E820, the
Linux kernel interprets those "gaps" as PCI I/O space.
This is what we are currently doing.
This can be disastrous if we pass in an Intel IGD card which tries
to use the first available PCI I/O space - and ends up
using the MFNs which are actually RAM instead of being the
PCI I/O space.
To make this work, we convert all E820_RAM that are above
the 'target_kb' (those that overlap the 'target_kb'
are truncated appropriately) to be E820_UNUSABLE. We also limit this
alternation up to 4GB. This means that an E820 for a guest
from this (target_kb=1024, maxmem=2048):
