Property will contain link to memory backend that will be
used for backing initial RAM.
Follow up commit will alias -mem-path and -mem-prealloc
CLI options into memory backend options to make memory
handling consistent (using only hostmem backend family
for guest RAM allocation).

v4:
* make property a string, instead of a link.
Fixes -M memory-backend=foo: foo not found error
since foo creation is delayed well beyond point
where machine's properties are set
v3:
* rename property name from ram-memdev to memory-backend
