Andrew Boie b0b7756756 x86: pre-allocate address space
We no longer use a page pool to draw memory pages when doing
memory map operations. We now preallocate the entire virtual
address space so no allocations are ever necessary when mapping
memory.

We still need memory to clone page tables, but this is now
expressed by a new Kconfig X86_MAX_ADDITIONAL_MEM_DOMAINS
which has much clearer semantics than specifying the number
of pages in the pool.

The default address space size is now 8MB, but this can be
tuned by the application.

Andrew Boie 0dae74e4a5 boards: x86: tune X86_MMU_PAGE_POOL_PAGES
These are set such that we have enough pages in the pool
for typical driver mappings and to instantiate two more
memory domains, which is what our tests require.

Andrew Boie 55914da0e5 boards: add qemu_x86_nopae target
We added support for 32-bit page tables, without PAE.
Add a build target to ensure it doesn't bit-rot.
