conf: Introduce 'readonly' element into xml for NVDIMM memory

The 'readonly' option allows users to mark vNVDIMM read-only:

<devices>
  ...
  <memory model='nvdimm' access='shared'>
      <source>
          <path>/dev/dax0.0</path>
      </source>
      <target>
          <size unit='MiB'>4094</size>
          <node>0</node>
          <label>
              <size unit='MiB'>2</size>
          </label>
          <readonly/>
      </target>
  </memory>
  ...
</devices>

For NVDIMM type devices one can optionally use
<code>label</code> and its subelement <code>size</code>
to configure the size of namespaces label storage
within the NVDIMM module. The <code>size</code> element
has usual meaning described
<a href="#elementsMemoryAllocation">here</a>.
For QEMU domains the following restrictions apply:
The following optional elements may be used:
</p>
<ol>
<li>the minimum label size is 128KiB,</li>
<li>the remaining size (total-size - label-size) has to be aligned to
4KiB</li>

The <code>readonly</code> element is used to mark the vNVDIMM
as read-only. Only the real NVDIMM device backend can guarantee
the guest write persistence, so other backend types should use
the <code>readonly</code> element.
