[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH 2/6 - V2] [Memory HotPlug] Add maxMemory and numa configuration to guest xml

In order to support memory hotplug, guest must have maxMemory and NUMA
configured in the xml.
For maxMemory, this patch changes xml generation at guest creation
time, adding maxMemory equals to host total memory and memory slots as
the integer number of GiB that fit inside maxMemory (by design users
will be allowed to add only memory chunks of 1GB).
For NUMA, this patch adds the simplest configuration possible, creating
only one node with all vcpus and memory set in the template.
