Qiao Nuohan 1b7a0f758b HMP: support specifying dump format for dump-guest-memory
Dumping guest memory is available to specify the dump format now. This patch
adds options '-z|-l|-s' to HMP command dump-guest-memory to specify dumping in
kdump-compression format, with zlib/lzo/snappy compression. And without these
options ELF format will be used.

The discussion about this feature is here:

qiaonuohan b53ccc30c4 dump: make kdump-compressed format available for 'dump-guest-memory'
Make monitor command 'dump-guest-memory' be able to dump in kdump-compressed
format. The command's usage:

  dump [-p] protocol [begin] [length] [format]

'format' is used to specified the format of vmcore and can be:
1. 'elf': ELF format, without compression
2. 'kdump-zlib': kdump-compressed format, with zlib-compressed
3. 'kdump-lzo': kdump-compressed format, with lzo-compressed
4. 'kdump-snappy': kdump-compressed format, with snappy-compressed
Without 'format' being set, it is same as 'elf'. And if non-elf format is
specified, paging and filter is not allowed.

Note:
  1. The kdump-compressed format is readable only with the crash utility and
     makedumpfile, and it can be smaller than the ELF format because of the
     compression support.
  2. The kdump-compressed format is the 6th edition.

qiaonuohan 5d31babe5c dump: add API to write vmcore
Function is used to write vmcore in flatten format. In flatten format, data is
written block by block, and in front of each block, a struct
MakedumpfileDataHeader is stored there to indicate the offset and size of the
data block.

struct MakedumpfileDataHeader {
    int64_t offset;
    int64_t buf_size;
};

qiaonuohan fda053875e dump: add API to write header of flatten format
flatten format will be used when writing kdump-compressed format. The format is
also used by makedumpfile, you can refer to the following URL to get more
detailed information about flatten format of kdump-compressed format:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/makedumpfile/

The two functions here are used to write start flat header and end flat header
to vmcore, and they will be called later when flatten format is used.

struct MakedumpfileHeader stored at the head of vmcore is used to indicate the
vmcore is in flatten format.

struct MakedumpfileHeader {
    char signature[16];     /* = "makedumpfile" */
    int64_t type;           /* = 1 */
    int64_t version;        /* = 1 */
};

And struct MakedumpfileDataHeader, with offset and buf_size set to -1, is used
to indicate the end of vmcore in flatten format.

struct MakedumpfileDataHeader {
    int64_t offset;         /* = -1 */
    int64_t buf_size;       /* = -1 */
};
