memory: fetch pmem size in get_file_size()

Neither stat(2) nor lseek(2) report the size of Linux devdax pmem
character device nodes.  Commit 314aec4a6e06844937f1677f6cba21981005f389
("hostmem-file: reject invalid pmem file sizes") added code to
hostmem-file.c to fetch the size from sysfs and compare against the
user-provided size=NUM parameter:

  if (backend->size > size) {
      error_setg(errp, "size property %" PRIu64 " is larger than "
                 "pmem file \"%s\" size %" PRIu64, backend->size,
                 fb->mem_path, size);
      return;
  }

It turns out that exec.c:qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd() already has an
equivalent size check but it skips devdax pmem character devices because
lseek(2) returns 0:

  if (file_size > 0 && file_size < size) {
      error_setg(errp, "backing store %s size 0x%" PRIx64
                 " does not match 'size' option 0x" RAM_ADDR_FMT,
                 mem_path, file_size, size);
      return NULL;
  }

This patch moves the devdax pmem file size code into get_file_size() so
that we check the memory size in a single place:
qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd().  This simplifies the code and makes it more
general.

This also fixes the problem that hostmem-file only checks the devdax
pmem file size when the pmem=on parameter is given.  An unchecked
size=NUM parameter can lead to SIGBUS in QEMU so we must always fetch
the file size for Linux devdax pmem character device nodes.
