vmm, virtio-devices: mem: Don't use MADV_DONTNEED on hugepages

This commit introduces a new information to the VirtioMemZone structure
in order to know if the memory zone is backed by hugepages.

Based on this new information, the virtio-mem device is now able to
determine if madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) should be performed or not. The
madvise documentation specifies that MADV_DONTNEED advice will fail if
the memory range has been allocated with some hugepages.
