We switched from qemu_memalign to mmap() but then we don't modify
qemu_vfree() to do a munmap() over free(). Which we cannot do
because qemu_vfree() frees memory allocated by qemu_{mem,block}align.
Introduce a new function that does the munmap(), luckily the size is
available in the RAMBlock.

Using qemu_memalign only leaves the RAM zero by chance, because libc
will usually use mmap to satisfy our huge requests. But memory will
not be zero when using MALLOC_PERTURB_ with a nonzero value. In the
case of incoming migration, this breaks a recently-introduced
invariant (commit f1c7279, migration: do not sent zero pages in
bulk stage, 2013-03-26).
To fix this, use mmap ourselves to get a well-aligned, always zero
block for the RAM. Mmap-ed memory is easy to "trim" at the sides.
This also removes the need to do something special on valgrind
(see commit c2a8238a, Support running QEMU on Valgrind, 2011-10-31),
thus effectively reverts that patch.

Rename to qemu_set_nonblock() just like qemu_set_cloexec().
