vaddr needs to be equal to the paddr since the dump file represents the
physical memory image.
Without setting vaddr correctly, GDB would load all the different memory
regions on top of each other to vaddr 0, thus making GDB showing the wrong
memory data for a given address.

Recent patches have removed ram_device and nonvolatile RAM
from dump-guest-memory's output. Do the same for dumps
that are extracted from a QEMU core file.

We've seen a few reports of
(gdb) source /usr/share/qemu-kvm/dump-guest-memory.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/qemu-kvm/dump-guest-memory.py", line 19, in <module>
UINTPTR_T = gdb.lookup_type("uintptr_t")
gdb.error: No type named uintptr_t.
This occurs when symbols haven't been loaded first, i.e. neither a
QEMU binary was loaded nor a QEMU process was attached first. Let's
better inform the user of how to fix the issue themselves in order
to avoid more reports.

When qemu is compiled without debug, the dump gdb python script can fail with:
Error occurred in Python command: No symbol "vmcoreinfo_find" in current context.
Because vmcoreinfo_find() is inlined and not exported.
Use the underlying object_resolve_path_type() to get the instance instead.

Let users of qemu_get_ram_ptr and qemu_ram_ptr_length pass in an
address that is relative to the MemoryRegion. This basically means
what address_space_translate returns.
Because the semantics of the second parameter change, rename the

This commit does not make the script python 3 compatible, it is a
preparation that fixes the easy and common incompatibilities.
Print is a function in python 3 and therefore needs braces around its
arguments.
Range does not cast a gdb.Value object to int in python 3, we have to
do it ourselves.
