virtio: introduce virtio_map

virtio_map_sg currently fails if one of the entries it's mapping is
contigious in GPA but not HVA address space.  Introduce virtio_map which
handles this by splitting sg entries.

This new API generally turns out to be a good idea since it's harder to
misuse: at least in one case the existing one was used incorrectly.

This will still fail if there's no space left in the sg, but luckily max
queue size in use is currently 256, while max sg size is 1024, so we
should be OK even is all entries happen to cross a single DIMM boundary.

Won't work well with very small DIMM sizes, unfortunately:
e.g. this will fail with 4K DIMMs where a single
request might span a large number of DIMMs.

Let's hope these are uncommon - at least we are not breaking things.

Note: virtio-scsi calls virtio_map_sg on data loaded from network, and
validates input, asserting on failure.  Copy the validating code here -
it will be dropped from virtio-scsi in a follow-up patch.
