migrate/ram: remove "ram_bulk_stage" and "fpo_enabled"
The bulk stage is kind of weird: migration_bitmap_find_dirty() will
indicate a dirty page, however, ram_save_host_page() will never save it, as
migration_bitmap_clear_dirty() detects that it is not dirty.

We already fill the bitmap in ram_list_init_bitmaps() with ones, marking
everything dirty - it didn't used to be that way, which is why we needed
an explicit first bulk stage.

Let's simplify: make the bitmap the single source of thuth. Explicitly
handle the "xbzrle_enabled after first round" case.

Regarding XBZRLE (implicitly handled via "ram_bulk_stage = false" right
now), there is now a slight change in behavior:
- Colo: When starting, it will be disabled (was implicitly enabled)
  until the first round actually finishes.
- Free page hinting: When starting, XBZRLE will be disabled (was implicitly
  enabled) until the first round actually finished.
- Snapshots: When starting, XBZRLE will be disabled. We essentially only
  do a single run, so I guess it will never actually get disabled.

Postcopy seems to indirectly disable it in ram_save_page(), so there
shouldn't be really any change.
