[libvirt] [PATCH 1/4] Introduce virNodeAllocPages

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away it has been decided
that libvirt will manage not only domains but host as well. And
with my latest work on qemu driver supporting huge pages, we miss
the cherry on top: an API to allocate huge pages on the run.
Currently users are forced to log into the host and adjust the
huge pages pool themselves.  However, with this API the problem
is gone - they can both size up and size down the pool.
