migration: Pre-fault memory before starting background snasphot

This commit solves the issue with userfault_fd WP feature that
background snapshot is based on. For any never poluated or discarded
memory page, the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl() would skip updating
PTE for that page, thereby loosing WP setting for it.

So we need to pre-fault pages for each RAM block to be protected
before making a userfault_fd wr-protect ioctl().

Fixes: 278e2f551a095b234de74dca9c214d5502a1f72c (migration: support
  UFFD write fault processing in ram_save_iterate())
