To ensure that struct sizes are the same on 32-bit and 64-bit, various
kernel APIs use __u64 (Rust u64) to represent userspace pointers.
Userspace is expected to cast pointers to __u64 before passing them to
the kernel, and cast kernel-provided __u64 to a pointer before using
them. However, various safe APIs in Cloud Hypervisor took
caller-provided u64 values and passed them to syscalls that treat them
as userspace addresses. Therefore, passing bad u64 values would cause
memory disclosure or corruption. The memory region APIs are one example
of this, so mark them as unsafe.

Deserializing values as `-1` makes sense to prevent errors, so let's
keep it. However, serializing them differently adds confusion. For
example, a `ch-remote info` call should not report `-1` but the actual
FDs.

(1) The old messages are missing the "why" part. With this change, users
of Cloud Hypervisor have somehow more context and people looking at
the code perfectly know what's going on.
(2) Using warn! implies that the user should take action, but in this
case, there’s nothing the user can do. If the API is used correctly
and file descriptors are passed via an SCM_RIGHTS message over a
UNIX domain socket, everything works as intended. In that case,
there's no need to issue a warning — debug! is sufficient.

This change enables easier integration with third-party
tools by removing the requirement for a dummy IP address
when configuring tap devices. The modification applies to
both CLI and API interactions.
Previously, cloud-hypervisor would automatically set a
default static IP address (192.168.249.1) if none was provided.
This could lead to:
* multiple devices without explicit IP configurations
would end up with the same default IP
* unnecessary inclusion of this IP in firewall rules
* the IP address could clash with host networking and
routing
This introduces a new constraint:
When providing an IP, the mask must also be provided.
Removes warnings introduced in #7179.
Closes issue #7083.

Currently, the following scenarios are supported by Cloud Hypervisor to
bootstrap a VM:
1. provide firmware
2. provide kernel
3. provide kernel + cmdline
4. provide kernel + initrd
5. provide kernel + cmdline + initrd
As the difference between `--firmware` and `--kernel` is not very clear
currently, especially as both use/support a Xen PVH entry, adding this
helps to identify the cause of misconfiguration.

This streamlines the code base to follow best practices for
error handling in Rust: Each error struct implements
std::error::Error (most due via thiserror::Error derive macro)
and sets its source accordingly.
This allows future work that nicely prints the error chains,
for example.
So far, the convention is that each error prints its
sub error as part of its Display::fmt() impl.

Allow tap interfaces to be configured with an IPv6 address. The change
is fairly straightforward: we need to update the API types and CLI
parsing to accept either an IPv6 or IPv4 and then match on the IP
address type when the tap device is configured.
For IPv6 addresses, the netmask (prefix) must be provided at the same
time as the address itself (in the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl). They cannot be
configured separately. So we remove the separate "set_netmask" function
and convert "set_ip_addr" to also accept a netmask. For IPv4 addresses,
the IP address and netmask were already always set together, so this
should have no functional impact for users of IPv4 addresses.

Asserting on .is_ok()/.is_err() leads to hard to debug failures (as if
the test fails, it will only say "assertion failed: false". We replace
these with `.unwrap()`, which also prints the exact error variant that
was unexpectedly encountered (we can to this these days thanks to
efforts to implement Display and Debug for our error types). If the
assert!((...).is_ok()) was followed by an .unwrap() anyway, we just drop
the assert.

Historically the Cloud Hypervisor coding style has been to ensure that
all imports are ordered and placed in a single group. Unfortunately
cargo fmt has no support for ensuring that all imports are in a single
group so if whitespace lines were added as part of the import statements
then they would only be odered correctly in the group.
By adopting "group_imports="StdExternalCrate" we can enforce a style
where imports are placed in at most three groups for std, external
crates and the crate itself. Choosing a style enforceable by the tooling
reduces the reviewer burden.

Pvmemcontrol provides a way for the guest to control its physical memory
properties, and enables optimizations and security features. For
example, the guest can provide information to the host where parts of a
hugepage may be unbacked, or sensitive data may not be swapped out, etc.
Pvmemcontrol allows guests to manipulate its gPTE entries in the SLAT,
and also some other properties of the memory map the back's host memory.
This is achieved by using the KVM_CAP_SYNC_MMU capability. When this
capability is available, the changes in the backing of the memory region
on the host are automatically reflected into the guest. For example, an
mmap() or madvise() that affects the region will be made visible
immediately.
There are two components of the implementation: the guest Linux driver
and Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) device. A guest-allocated shared
buffer is negotiated per-cpu through a few PCI MMIO registers, the VMM
device assigns a unique command for each per-cpu buffer. The guest
writes its pvmemcontrol request in the per-cpu buffer, then writes the
corresponding command into the command register, calling into the VMM
device to perform the pvmemcontrol request.
The synchronous per-cpu shared buffer approach avoids the kick and busy
waiting that the guest would have to do with virtio virtqueue transport.
The Cloud Hypervisor component can be enabled with --pvmemcontrol.

'NetConfig' FDs, when explicitly passed via SCM_RIGHTS during VM
creation, are marked as invalid during snapshot. See: #6332.
So, Restore should support input for the new net FDs. This patch adds
new field 'net_fds' to 'RestoreConfig'. The FDs passed using this new
field are replaced into the 'fds' field of NetConfig appropriately.
The 'validate()' function ensures all net devices from 'VmConfig' backed
by FDs have a corresponding 'RestoreNetConfig' with a matched 'id' and
expected number of FDs.
The unit tests provide different inputs to parse and validate functions
to make sure parsing and error handling is as per expectation.

This commit adds the debug-console (or debugcon) device to CHV. It is a
very simple device on I/O port 0xe9 supported by QEMU and BOCHS. It is
meant for printing information as easy as possible, without any
necessary configuration from the guest at all.
It is primarily interesting to OS/kernel and firmware developers as they
can produce output as soon as the guest starts without any configuration
of a serial device or similar. Furthermore, a kernel hacker might use
this device for information of type B whereas information of type A are
printed to the serial device.
This device is not used by default by Linux, Windows, or any other
"real" OS, but only by toy kernels and during firmware development.
In the CLI, it can be configured similar to --console or --serial with
the --debug-console parameter.
