Locking the memory without MCL_ONFAULT instantly prefaults any mmaped
anonymous memory with a write-fault, which introduces a lot of extra
overhead in terms of memory usage when all you want to do is to prevent
kcompactd from migrating and compacting QEMU pages. Add an option to
only lock pages lazily as they're faulted by the process by using
MCL_ONFAULT if asked.

Replace the boolean value enable_mlock with an enum and add a helper to
decide whether we should be calling os_mlock.
This is a stepping stone towards introducing a new mlock mode, which
will be the third possible state of this enum.

By changing the way the main QEMU event loop is invoked, I inadvertently
changed the BQL status of exit notifiers: some of them implicitly
assumed they would be called with the BQL held; the BQL is however
not held during the exit(status) call in qemu_default_main().
Instead of attempting to ensuring we always call exit() from the BQL -
including any transitive calls - this change adds a BQL lock guard to
qemu_run_exit_notifiers, ensuring the BQL will always be held in the
exit notifiers.
Additionally, the BQL promise is now documented at the
qemu_{add,remove}_exit_notifier() declarations.

Headers in include/sysemu/ are not only related to system
*emulation*, they are also used by virtualization. Rename
as system/ which is clearer.
Files renamed manually then mechanical change using sed tool.
