The dirty log perf test will time verious dirty logging operations
(enabling dirty logging, dirtying memory, getting the dirty log,
clearing the dirty log, and disabling dirty logging) in order to
quantify dirty logging performance. This test can be used to inform
future performance improvements to KVM's dirty logging infrastructure.
This series was tested by running the following invocations on an Intel
Skylake machine:
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20m -i 100 -v 64
dirty_log_perf_test -b 20g -i 5 -v 4
dirty_log_perf_test -b 4g -i 5 -v 32
demand_paging_test -b 20m -v 64
demand_paging_test -b 20g -v 4
demand_paging_test -b 4g -v 32
All behaved as expected.

Add a helper function to get the current time and return the time since
a given start time. Use that function to simplify the timekeeping in the
demand paging test.

The steal_time test's timespec stop condition was wrong and should have
used the timespec functions instead to avoid being wrong, but
timespec_diff had a strange interface. Rework all the timespec API and
its use.

The steal-time test confirms what is reported to the guest as stolen
time is consistent with the run_delay reported for the VCPU thread
on the host. Both x86_64 and AArch64 have the concept of steal/stolen
time so this test is introduced for both architectures.
While adding the test we ensure .gitignore has all tests listed
(it was missing s390x/resets) and that the Makefile has all tests
listed in alphabetical order (not really necessary, but it almost
was already...). We also extend the common API with a new num-guest-
pages call and a new timespec call.

Add an argument to allow the demand paging test to work on larger and
smaller guest sizes.

[Rewrote parse_size() to simplify and provide user more flexibility as
to how sizes are input. Also fixed size overflow assert.]
