With kernel 3.18 (since commit 3e32cb2e0a12b6915056ff04601cf1bb9b44f967)
the "unlimited" value for cgroup memory limits has changed once again as
its byte value is now computed from a page counter.
The new "unlimited" value reported by the cgroup fs is therefore 2**51-1
pages which is (VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED - 3072). This results
e.g. in virsh memtune displaying 9007199254740988 instead of unlimited
for the limits.
This patch uses the value of memory.limit_in_bytes from the cgroup
memory root which is the system's "real" unlimited value for comparison.
See also libvirt commit 231656bbeb9e4d3bedc44362784c35eee21cf0f4 for the
history for kernel 3.12 and before.

v2:
- removed RFC verbiage from commit message
- per Martin's review comment, cache the cgroup memory.limit_in_bytes
- used the cgroup detection logic proposed by Martin, much nicer now indeed
- other than initially planned, fall back to VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED
in case of cgroup read failure, since the usual paranoia fits in nicely with
the "already initialized" check. With the current code structure this will
never be called when the memory controller is not configured or mounted
anyway...
- while at it, replaced the goto cleanups with direct returns as there's
really no cleanup to be done in the GetMemoryxxxLimit functions
