The save process was relying on use of the shell>>  append

Replace this code with use of 'dd' and its 'seek' parameter.
This means that we need to pad the header + XML out to a
multiple of dd block size (in this case we choose 512).

The qemuMonitorMigateToCommand() monitor API is used for both
save/coredump, and migration via UNIX socket. We can't simply
switch this to use 'dd' since this causes problems with the
migration usage. Thus, create a dedicated qemuMonitorMigateToFile
which can accept an filename + offset, and remove the filename
from the current qemuMonitorMigateToCommand() API

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Switch to qemuMonitorMigateToFile
   for save and core dump
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
   src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h,
   src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: Create
   a new qemuMonitorMigateToFile, separate from the existing
   qemuMonitorMigateToCommand to allow handling file offsets

Is it really necessary to add this padding even when we *aren't* using dd? (ie, when is_reg == 1).
