[libvirt] [PATCH v2 RESEND 06/17] util: Add MBA allocation to virresctrl

From: Bing Niu <bing.niu at intel.com>

Add memory bandwidth allocation support to virresctrl class.
Introducing virResctrlAllocMemBW which is used for allocating memory
bandwidth. Following virResctrlAllocPerType, it also employs a
nested sparse array to indicate whether allocation is available for
particular last level cache.
