hw/usb/hcd-xhci: Avoid variable-length array in xhci_get_port_bandwidth()

In xhci_get_port_bandwidth(), we use a variable-length array to
construct the buffer to send back to the guest. Avoid the VLA
by using dma_memory_set() to directly request the memory system
to fill the guest memory with a string of '80's.

The codebase has very few VLAs, and if we can get rid of them all we
can make the compiler error on new additions.  This is a defensive
measure against security bugs where an on-stack dynamic allocation
isn't correctly size-checked (e.g.  CVE-2021-3527).
