Add an option for hostmem-file to start the memory object at an offset
into the target file. This is useful if multiple memory objects reside
inside the same target file, such as a device node.
In particular, it's useful to map guest memory directly into /dev/mem
for experimentation.
To make this work consistently, also fix up all places in QEMU that
expect fd offsets to be 0.

I queued this as is to

I might send this upstream soonish (nothing else is really pending).
Thanks!
