Add the direct-io migration parameter that tells the migration code to
use O_DIRECT when opening the migration stream file whenever possible.

This is currently only used for the secondary channels of fixed-ram
migration, which can guarantee that writes are page aligned.

However the parameter could be made to affect other types of
file-based migrations in the future.
