80958acdab vmm: Wire postcopy live migration from source VM
Wire up the source side of postcopy migration over TCP. When
`mode=postcopy` is requested on vm.send-migration, the source skips
the pre-copy dirty-tracking loop and lets the destination resume early,
then serves guest pages on demand over a dedicated connection.

The previous docs were very developer centric and have led several
people to believe that cross-machine migration is not supported at
all.

001ee6794c docs: Update the live-migration documentation
To enable live-migration for vhost-user devices, we now always shutdown
the source VM when the migration is completed. This patch reflects this
change in the documentation.
