mm/memory_hotplug: memory group aware "auto-movable" online policy

Use memory groups to improve our "auto-movable" onlining policy:

1. For static memory groups (e.g., a DIMM), online a memory block MOVABLE
   only if all other memory blocks in the group are either MOVABLE or could
   be onlined MOVABLE. A DIMM will either be MOVABLE or not, not a mixture.

2. For dynamic memory groups (e.g., a virtio-mem device), online a
   memory block MOVABLE only if all other memory blocks inside the
   current unit are either MOVABLE or could be onlined MOVABLE. For a
   virtio-mem device with a device block size with 512 MiB, all 128 MiB
   memory blocks wihin a 512 MiB unit will either be MOVABLE or not, not
   a mixture.

We have to pass the memory group to zone_for_pfn_range() to take the
memory group into account.

Note: for now, there seems to be no compelling reason to make this
behavior configurable.
