On x86, when assigning VFIO-PCI devices protected with virtio-iommu
we encounter the case where the guest tries to map IOVAs beyond 48b
whereas the physical VTD IOMMU only supports 48b. This ends up with
VFIO_MAP_DMA failures at qemu level because at kernel level,
vfio_iommu_iova_dma_valid() check returns false on vfio_map_do_map().

This is due to the fact the virtio-iommu currently unconditionally
exposes an IOVA range of 64b through its config input range fields.

This series removes this assumption by retrieving the usable IOVA
regions through the VFIO_IOMMU_TYPE1_INFO_CAP_IOVA_RANGE UAPI when
a VFIO device is attached. This info is communicated to the
virtio-iommu memory region, transformed into the inversed info, ie.
the host reserved IOVA regions. Then those latter are combined with the
reserved IOVA regions set though the virtio-iommu reserved-regions
property. That way, the guest virtio-iommu driver, unchanged, is
able to probe the whole set of reserved regions and prevent any IOVA
belonging to those ranges from beeing used, achieving the original goal.

History:
v1 -> v2:
- Remove "[PATCH 12/13] virtio-iommu: Resize memory region according
  to the max iova info" which causes way too much trouble: trigger
  a coredump in vhost, causes duplication of IOMMU notifiers causing
  EEXIST vfio_dma_map errors, ... This looks like a bad usage of the
  memory API so I prefer removing this from this series. So I was
  also obliged to remove the vfio_find_hostwin() check in the case
  of an IOMMU MR.
- Let range_inverse_array() take low/high args instead of hardcoding
  0, UINT64_MAX which both complexifies the algo and the tests.
- Move range function description in header.
- Check that if set_iova_ranges is called several times, new resv
  regions are included in previous ones
