Hybrid VMs at large scale improvements

[afcollins]

Enables hugepages on the hypervisor and libvirt VMs.
Fixes some issues with hugetlb pages.

Also, adds interfaces that can be used as virtual functions.

Some changes were generated using Cursor and the claude-4-sonnet model.

Addressed all comments. Reverted some unnecessary changes. Renamed a variable. Added a variable for VFs in VMs. Please take another look when you can.

I still don't have a way to validate these changes for right now. :/ But may be able to do so in early December.

Changing to draft while I split into more atomic PRs.

Hi @afcollins Is this PR ready for merge?

[afcollins]

It is not quite ready yet.

The documentation was never finished, so I filled it out and reduced the complexity.

Rebased on main.

Seems memory isn't being calculated correctly, so I need to dig into it.

VM vm00001 will use 2 1Gi hugepages (2G total)

[afcollins]

Figured it out. The vm_hugepage_count variable was used in the debug message.

After further review, the variable is only used for the message and the VM will take as many hugepages as required based on its defined memory. Therefore, I think it makes more sense to remove the variable entirely and only use the memory defined on the hv_vm host entry.

Tested and it works. Should be all good to go now.
