[PULL,03/42] physmem: fix qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd size calculation

qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd allocates space if file_size == 0.  If non-zero,
it uses the existing space and verifies it is large enough, but the
verification was broken when the offset parameter was introduced.  As
a result, a file smaller than offset passes the verification and causes
errors later.  Fix that, and update the error message to include offset.

Peter provides this concise reproducer:

  $ touch ramfile
  $ truncate -s 64M ramfile
  $ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -object memory-backend-file,mem-path=./ramfile,offset=128M,size=128M,id=mem1,prealloc=on
  qemu-system-x86_64: qemu_prealloc_mem: preallocating memory failed: Bad address

With the fix, the error message is:
  qemu-system-x86_64: mem1 backing store size 0x4000000 is too small for 'size' option 0x8000000 plus 'offset' option 0x8000000
