Add API to get all virtual address and physical address mapping.
If the guest doesn't use paging, the virtual address is equal to the phyical
address. The virtual address and physical address mapping is for gdb's user, and
it does not include the memory that is not referenced by the page table. So if
you want to use crash to anaylze the vmcore, please do not specify -p option.

Is it better to define the below somewhere else?

#ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_GET_MEMORY_MAPPING
static inline int qemu_get_guest_memory_mapping(MemoryMappingList *list)
{
	return -2;
}
#endif

Thanks.

It's necessary to write the reason why the -p option is not default
explicitly: guest machine in a catastrophic state can have corrupted
memory, which we cannot trust.

Thanks.
